Applying filtersΒΆ

By default, the different Alarm Monitor views are set to show all un-acknowledged Alarms, sorted by severity. This can be changed by applying one or more filters.

Note

Any filters configured will be applied to all Alarm Monitor views until they are reset using the Clear Filters button.

Filter categories

Clicking the Filters button opens the Filtering Options tray, which is divided into the following categories:

  • Policy

  • Severity

  • Risk

  • Hosts

  • Violators

  • Targets

  • Alarm Policy category

To apply a filter, expand the category it falls under and select on or more criteria. Multiple criteria from different categories can be applied at the same time.

Hint

To also display Events that have already been acknowledged and hidden, use the Show Acknowledged Events toggle.

Time period covered

To show Alarms generated within a specific time period, click the calendar icon and use the dropdown to select from the following preset ranges:

  • Last 5 minutes

  • Last 15 minutes

  • Last hour

  • Today

  • Last 24 hours

  • Yesterday

  • Last 7 days

  • Last week

  • Last 30 days

  • Last month

Custom From and To ranges can also be applied by selecting Custom from the range dropdown.

Exporting filtered tables

When exporting Alarm and Event details using either selection in the Options tray, all active filters (including the date and time period) are automatically applied.

Hint

The Export CSV (All) option exports all Alarm and Event data, regardless of the current Show Entries setting in the Options tray.
