If a message template exists for an existing, correlated alarm and the generated text does not match the original alarm, then Dell OpenManage Network Manager closes the existing alarm, and generates a new one. Leaving this blank transmits the original message. Tip Putting an OID in curly brackets amounts to a tag replaced by the MIB text for that OID. Look for OIDs and messages in the MIB browser (as described in MIB Browser on page 192). Correlations This screen lets you configure Correlated Events and Correlation Key Bindings. For example, a link down event could correlate with a link up event, or an alarm with a clear alarm event. In the Correlated Events panel, click Add to display a selector (with filter) to find events to correlate with the one you are editing. In Correlation Key Bindings, use the right/left arrows to select Key Variables from Available Variables. The variables considered keys for correlation are the key bindings for the target alarm in the correlation process. This means that if event A is defined to include event B as a correlated event, comparison of the key bindings defined for event B is also considered when comparing a new alarm for event A to an existing alarm for event B. 136 Event Definitions | Key Portlets
