Alarm Messages

Several of the actions you can execute when an alarm fails a consecutive number of tests is the sending of messages.

The default format used by all message types is specified by the root node at the top of the monitor tree, named the KNM node by default. All other descendant nodes inherit this message format unless you choose to override it. There is a separate format for action messages and for recovery action messages. See the list of Format Variables available to use.

To override the inherited default format, click either the Basic properties or Advanced tab, depending on the type of node you've selected. Then uncheck the Inherit alarm messages checkbox.
