Alarm severity
The 5620 SAM GUI uses color to indicate alarm severity. Default color Red Orange Yellow Cyan Mocha Green White Light blue Alarm Severity Critical Service-affecting fault / Requires immediate attention Major - Possibly service affecting / Requires attention ASAP Minor - Non service affecting / Requires attention when possible Warning Could potentially affect service / Requires investigation Condition Cleared Alarm no longer current regardless of the previous state Indeterminate 5620 SAM is determining the severity level Info - Information only / Does not signify a fault condition

Affecting, aggregated and related alarms definition

For a given object : Aggregated alarms are alarms that are generated due to objects hierarchy.
Aggregated alarm generated on eNB Equipment
eNB cell down
Correlated alarms are alarms raised for other objects that are dependent on the alarmed object.
2 1 13
Affecting, aggregated and related alarms definition [cont.]
Related alarms, also called affecting alarms, are alarms that have impact on another object.
