Netsight 6.2 - Console - Alarms Manager

In which file are the alarms saved? Is it possible to edit this file?

If you mean the file where the alarms are defined.

In the windows environment it is the file C:\Program Files\Extreme Networks\NetSight\services\trapd

hi Johan,

no. As you know if you get a trap, you will not get an alarm unless you defined an alarm using the trap you get (and the trap must be added in the trapd.conf). To define an alarm I open the Alarms Manager an define for instance the alarm action, start program X. Where is this saved?

Thanks, Wendelin

That I don't know.I think in the netsight database.

Alarms are defined in the netsight database in the table nsalarmdefs

Example

2 rows in set (0.00 sec)Why would you want to edit this from here and not the alarm manager?

Thank you. I do define alarms for a third party device. For instance an alarm for "SFP plugged out" and one for "SFP plugged in". And "SFP plugged in" clears the "SFP plugged out". This definitions are now in my demo system. How to ADD this to the Netsight system of my customer? If I could edit the alarms definitions I just could copy/add "my alarms".

You have to define the alarms in the :\Program Files\Extreme Networks\NetSight\services\trapd (windows enviorment )

The enty must like:

EVENT extremePortMauChangeTrap .1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.4.13.2.0.1 "Status Alarms" Warning

FORMAT $1 $3

SDESC

"SFP removed or inserted on switch"
