Module: ERICSSON-ALARM-IRP-MIB

OID (symbolic): ERICSSON-ALARM-IRP-MIB::alarmCommentText

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.3881.2.1.8.1.12

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString200

Access: read-write

Description: This object represents a comment added by an actor to the subject alarm. This object shall always be set in the same set request as the 'alarmCommentUser' object defined above. The system will respond with 'inconsistentValue' upon attempts to set this object without setting 'alarmAckUser'.

What is alarmCommentText?

This read-write object holds free-text commentary that an actor has attached to an alarm, and the MIB requires it be set in the same request as alarmCommentUser, up to 200 characters. An admin uses it to leave diagnostic notes or status updates on an active alarm for other operators to see. For example, a technician might write 'Dispatched field crew, ETA 2 hours' into alarmCommentText while troubleshooting a hardware fault alarm.
