Answers to the Chapter 7 Review Questions

Following are the answers to the Review Questions on page 98:

1. What are the differences between using property and alarm scope to limit a behavior model?

   Property allows you to limit monitoring activity to a particular set of nodes. Alarm scope allows you to limit how many instances of alarms can occur.

2. Why was it necessary to use more than one alarm to create the multi-alarm behavior model in this chapter?

   It was necessary to create a multi-alarm behavior model because one alarm would not have been able to monitor the right conditions. The SubObject scope will only track alarm instances on each individual port. The Node scope would not allow NerveCenter to track more than one instance per node.
