Dear List.. On IA 7.1.4 we are using the /usr/hstorian/almhist to collect monthly alarms data ( using HH731 Guide ) According to older an posting //www.freelists.org/post/foxboro/foxboro-AIM-questions : /If you are at 8.0 or later, the Alarm Manager reads the alarms from the AIM* database via the AIM*API. AIM* still writes the almhist file however. Kathy / On our IA 8.8 the /usr/hstorian/almhist is not updating on all 3 AWs.. I think the current alarm data are kept in /opt/aim/inst/xxxxxx/m*.fdb Is there a command to extract the alarm data ( similar to HH731 concept ) which I can schedule via scripts or execute via command prompt.. Or a command to make the /usr/hstorian/almhist updating again.. Many thanks in advance.. God knows best.. Best Regards..
