5743.0. "Alarm with DS300 Status" by DRAC::CODINA () Tue Nov 16 1993 10:11




Hi all,

a customer (and i also in my office) found a funny 'bug' (???) in Alarm FM
related to a terminal server.

We tested the 'Selftest Status' field in a DS300 V2.2. If value is not
"Normal" alarm should fire. In our testing we find that condition is 
evaluated as True but no action is taken, no mail, no change of colour
of the icon, no batch job executed.

This problem is ONLY with the condition described. The opposite condition 
(Selftest Status = Normal) works well. It also works evaluating other
characteristics (Software Status for example).

Versions are BMS 1.3, TSAM 1.0.4 and DS300 V2.2

I'll appreciate very much if somebody takes a look into the procedure and
see if there is anything wrong or there is possible bug in order to use 
appropiate channels.

Thanks in advance,
Herminia
