BCM fault management scope
You can view and manage real-time alarms generated by the BCM system.
Alarms arise from components that run on the system; these alarms indicate
faults or informational conditions that may require resolution from the system
administrator. Examples of alarm conditions include:
• a T1 circuit on the system is down
• an administrator stopped a service that runs on the BCM
You can receive alarm information through any of the following means:
• the Alarms Panel in the Business Element Manager
• the Alarm Banner in the Business Element Manager
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps for remote
management of faults
