Alarm log full of repeated alarm

FAQ Question
What to do if an object goes in and out of alarm, repeatedly, filling up the alarm log with numerous records for a specific alarm?
Answer

You might want to remove these entries from the alarm log.

This can be done using the command line tool ALMremoveNum.exe – located in the GSS folder

The commands are: ALMremoveNum folder almno

This removes listed alarm numbers from all alarm files in the specified folder.
Several alarm numbers can be given as a space separated list. The original files are backed up with extension *.aol.

Example:

ALMremoveNum c:\report 1012 1013 1014

Will remove all alarms with alarm number 1012, 1013 and 1014 from all *.alm files in the folder c:\report
