What is alarmTrapAlarmType?

This indicates whether the alarm is a clear(1), meaning the condition ended, an attentionRequired(2) meaning the element itself needs attention, or an attendToDependent(3) meaning a dependent element the alarmed object relies on is the real source of trouble. Admins use this to decide whether to investigate the alarmed element directly or trace the problem to an upstream dependency.
