Description: A list of alarm table entries. Alarms are named by an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, upsAlarmDescr, to allow a single table to reflect well known alarms plus alarms defined by a particular implementation, i.e., as documented in the private enterprise MIB definition for the device. No two rows will have the same value of upsAlarmDescr, since alarms define conditions. In order to meet this requirement, care should be taken in the definition of alarm conditions to insure that a system cannot enter the same condition multiple times simultaneously.

The number of rows in the table at any given time is reflected by the value of upsAlarmsPresent.
