Changing an Alarm's Scope

It's rarely necessary to change the scope of an alarm since determining the alarm's scope is usually a very fundamental part of designing the alarm. However, if the need to change an alarm's scope does arrive, you can make this change from the Alarm Definition List window.

 
  To change an alarm's scope:

1. Choose Alarm Definition List from the client's Admin menu.

   The Alarm Definition List window is displayed.

2. Select the alarm whose scope you want to change.
3. With your cursor positioned over the selected alarm, click your right mouse button to display a pop-up menu that lists the operations you can perform from the Alarm Definition List window.
4. Select Scope from the pop-up menu.

   The Scope dialog appears.

5. Select a scope from the drop-down listbox in the Scope dialog.

   The dialog's Save button is enabled.

6. Select the Save button.

The alarm's scope is changed.
