Cyclades AlterPath BladeManager user manual Alarms, Search and Filter Functions

Alarms

An underlined column name indicates that the list can be sorted by the column name. The Blade List form, for example, allows you to sort by Blade, Type, Device, Location, or Status. To sort by Location, simply click the column name, Location.

The arrow adjacent to the heading indicates that the list is sorted based on that heading. The position of the arrowhead indicates the sort order. A downward arrowhead indicates that the list is alphanumerically arranged in ascending order; an upward arrowhead, in descending order. You can change the sort order by clicking on the heading or the arrow.

Search and Filter Functions

When available, you will find the Search and Filter by buttons at the bottom of the List form.

This allows you to search through a List form by selecting the search category (i.e., Blade group) from the dropdown field and selecting the Search button. You can also filter your search by selecting a category from the Filter by dropdown field and selecting the Filter by button. The system automatically saves the filtered list.

Alarms

The Alarm List form is the default form of the BladeManager Web Interface in Access mode. An alarm is a brief message alerting you of a possible problem that requires an action.

When BladeManager detects an alarm, it sends the alarm along with a ticket number to the user’s Alarm List form. As a user, you should see only those alarms assigned to you by your administrator.

If the trigger for the alarm has been configured to send an email, then you should also receive an email notification regarding the alarm. Each alarm or ticket in the list includes a timestamp, a priority level, and a status.
