Hi,  What are Focused alarms in DM 10 and how do they work?  Can the icon be removed from the alarms column?

Hi Paul,

You can find more information about alarm focus in DataMiner Docs.

To disable this option, you could do it through System Center -> System Settings -> analytics config:

Thanks, that is useful. Just a little surprised to see it enabled after an upgrade.

Any specific reason why you want to disable it? Note that disabling Alarm Focus will break the Automatic Incident Tracking feature. So, please only disable it if you are sure you do not want to use either of these features. From 10.2.7 onwards, Automatic Incident Tracking will disable automatically once you disable Alarm Focus. For lower versions you will have to do it manually.

Indeed. There is a difference between disabling the complete feature (as described in this thread), which has broader implications as noted by Tobe, as compared to just removing the Focus icon in the Alarm Console.

Agreed, we have just removed it from the Operators Alarm Console following the recent upgrade.
