Exceptions in Alarm Configuration

How do you except switches from global alarms?

Will a exception field be added in a upcoming update?

If you have to use a workflow, is there a dummies guide to creating workflow tasks?

There is nothing such as global alarms. There are a multiple alarm definitions enabled by default, but you may customize them and use inclusion logic (rather than exclusion), by using "Additonal criteria" option in the alarm definitions. Logically it may serve the same purpose. You need to create your own device group and include all relevant devices. Then use that group as "Additional criteria" in the alarm definition.

I don't have any information about such "exclusion" logic to be implemented in the future.

About Workflows - complexity depends of the use case, and the user skillset, but in general workflows is a tool for someone who knows at least basics of coding and has some devops experience. There is no "dummy" guide for that, but if you have real use case you can always contact your local Extreme representative. We do have professional services team which could create workflow for you.

But if you want to learn it yourself, please refer to XIQ-SE help. Also check our github and browse library of multiple workflows which you can use as reference ExtremeScripting/XMC_XIQ-SE/oneview_workflows at master · extremenetworks/ExtremeScripting · GitHub

Alarms trigger on configured groups.

Maybe you can create a custom group (e.g., no_alarms) and add the switches to this group. Later, configure the alarms to trigger on all groups except this one
