Why are all the groups and priorities of my "Alarming 2" feature displayed with "0"?

FAQ #101694

 

Problem
Groups and priorities of the alarms in "Alarming 2" feature are all set to "0".
There's a bug in the actual FBox Library "Alarming v2.6.166".
If you don't enable the Eventlist functionality in the "Alarm2 SWeb" FBox, your "Alarming 2" alarmlist will behave like a traditional "Alarming 1" alarmlist. This means, it'll not care about the group- and priority-definitions. A "0" is indicated for groups and priorities instead of the real numbers.

Solution
Until a new version of the FBox Library will correct this issue and if you want to use the "Alarming 2" feature without implementing an Eventlist, you can apply following workaround:
- enable the Eventlist in the "Alarm2 SWeb" FBox
- minimize the generation of creating Event-files my choosing to create a file only each month
- but anyway, you'll have to specify a Flash file system for the logs
- clear to "0" all the alarms in the Eventlist-columns of your Alarming Configuration file.
