Alarm States
An alarm instance transitions between the states in response to events or in response to a user action.
The following table describes the possible alarm states.
Alarm Status | Description | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Configured |
Initial state of an alarm. |
|||
Active |
The state when an alarm is triggered with an active event. |
|||
Acknowledged |
In this state, a user has indicated the alarm is recognized and acknowledged. An alarm that is in Active or Snoozed state can be marked as acknowledged.
|
|||
Clear |
The alarm is no longer active. The Clear state is an ephemeral state. The alarm instance transitions to a configured state after a 30 second hold time. |
|||
Snoozed |
An alarm that is in Active or Acknowledged state can be marked as Snoozed by the user for a specified time period. During this period, the alarm shows up in the active alarms list. However, if the alarm condition clears, then a notification will be sent to the notification endpoint (if one was configured). |
|||
Active (Snoozed) |
The alarm has been Snoozed, but the conditions that would trigger the alarm to be Active are present. |
|||
Cleared (Snoozed) |
The alarm has been Snoozed and the conditions that would trigger the alarm are no longer present. |
|||
Unconfigured |
An alarm transitions to an Unconfigured state and is eventually deleted when the user deletes the alarm policy, or the rule corresponding to the alarm instance. The Unconfigured state is an ephemeral state, and the alarm instance is deleted after a 30 second hold time. |
