Hello..

Using an alarm template, is it possible to replace the contents of the 'Parameter Description' field in an alarm with something else i.e. other thann its default values.??

Hi Ken,

I think what you're looking for is an Information templates | DataMiner Docs
Information templates allow you to override certain parameter data (names, descriptions, etc.) defined in a protocol without making any change to the protocol itself.

Hi .. Yes .. I was loooking at changing the protocol itself. I will take a look at this. Thanks for the feedback. I would initially have to change the Location Name. The Parameter description contains a concatenation of the two Parameter ID's including the Location Name.
