Suppress an Alarm Using the CLI

You can use the CLI to prevent a monitored system parameter from generating unnecessary alarms.

Procedure

1. Use the fm event-suppress to suppress a single alarm or multiple alarms by ID.

   ~(keystone_admin)$ fm event-suppress [--nowrap] --alarm id <alarm_ id>[,<alarm-id>] \
   [--nopaging] [--uuid]
   

   where

   <alarm-id>

   is a comma separated list of alarm UUIDs.

   –nowrap

   disables output wrapping

   –nopaging

   disables paged output

   –uuid

   includes the alarm type UUIDs in the output

   An error message is generated in the case of an invalid <alarm-id>: Alarm ID not found: <alarm-id>.

   If the specified number of Alarm IDs is greater than 1, and at least 1 is wrong, then the suppress command is not applied (none of the specified Alarm IDs are suppressed).

   Note

   Suppressing an Alarm will result in the system NOT notifying the operator of this particular fault.
