Script for Acknowledging Alarms by Severity

kyleasmith83 · ‎2024-08-02

Hello all,

I'm needing to have the acknowledgement of alarms done by severity. I did this by script at another company about 10 years ago but can't find my notes and am drawing a complete blank on how to script this.

Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.

You could query the CAlarm table for the severities that match your condition and you can then call the accept method.

The CAlarmObject table will only give you the highest severity for any active alarm on the object (some object types have multiple possible alarms), which might be what you're after, but would be quicker.

Do you mean Acknowledge all alarms of a particular severity, or only allow a particular severity to be acknowledged?

Only a particular severity.
