List of alarms

The alarm table named PFM SR Solution Alarms 09.00 contains the alarms that are defined in the monitoring template for PFM - Agent for Service Response (09.00 indicates the version of the alarm table).

PFM - Agent for Service Response provides 2 types of the alarm as the monitoring template. Use the alarm or alarms that match your objectives so that the necessary alarms are given.

The following table shows the Alarm types and the purpose of use:

Table 8-1 Alarm types and Monitoring purpose

Alarm typePurpose of use
<service-name> Response Time
<service-name> Replay Time
Alarms for detecting that the measurement value is abnormal.
Use these alarms to detect that the measurement results are beyond the specified threshold values. If errors (such as a timeout error) occur while measuring, use also <service-name> Failure, because <service-name> Response Time and <service-name> Replay Time can not detect the errors while measuring.
<service-name> FailureAlarms for detecting errors while measuring. This alarm does not check the measurement values, but checks whether errors (such as a timeout error) occur while measuring.

This alarm table is stored in the Service Response folder, which is displayed on the Alarms tree in PFM - Web Console. The following table lists the alarms defined in the monitoring template.
