Introduction
The Alarm report is a view of all Alarms that were activated in the date range selected.
Alarm status is shown as Resolved or Unresolved. Resolved is inferred by way of the date and time.
This report also shows the time taken to resolve an alarm.
When there is a scripted action in the knowledgebase, the Action field contains a summary of the scripted response.
