Modifying and copying trap to alarm rules
The Copy feature for Trap to Alarm rules lets you create a new rule by making a copy of an existing
system or user-defined rule and make whatever modifications are necessary to the copy.
With this feature, you can make changes to a system-defined rule, as IMC does not allow modifications
to system-defined rules. The Copy feature also provides you with the additional benefit of changing the
name of a Trap to Alarm rule, which the Modify feature does not.
The process for copying a Trap to Alarm rule is similar to the process for modifying a rule.
1. Navigate to Trap to Alarm.
a. Click the Alarm tab from the tabular navigation system on the top.
b. Click Trap Management on the navigation tree on the left.
c. Click Trap to Alarm under Trap Management from the navigation tree on the left.
2. Do one of the following:
{
Click the Copy icon associated with the rule you want to copy.
{
Click the Modify icon associated with the user-defined rule you want to modify.
3. If you are copying a rule, you can rename the rule by entering the new name in the Rule Name
field. Rule names must be unique.
You cannot modify the name of a rule once it has been created. To modify a rule name, you must
use the Copy option to copy the contents of a system or user-defined rule to a new user-defined
rule.
4. Enter a description in the Rule Description field.
5. Click the checkbox to the left of Keywords if you want to add or modify a keyword in this Trap
to Alarm rule.
