Re: [foxboro] Screen Lists and Protections

Dale,

What also can be done.

Since the alarm manager doesn't startup at boot time, I add amcmd protect 
value xxx at the end of the am_cmds file.

in the corresponding env file (Operator.acl for example) I add

dmcmd run /usr/local/pref -$DMTOAM amcmd "setacl 100 ----" or
dmcmd run /usr/local/pref -$DMTOAM amcmd "setacl 100 ++++"
