Logging invalid alarms

Use the InvalidAlarmLogging property to specify whether the probe logs invalid alarms. Specify a value of 1 to enable logging. The default is 0, which disables logging.

Use the InvalidAlarmLogFile property to specify the name and location of the invalid alarm log file and the MaxInvalidAlarmLogFileSize property to specify the maximum size of the log file in bytes. When the maximum log file size is reached, the probe creates a new file and appends the current date and time to the file name.

The probe flushes an event to the ObjectServer after five seconds, as specified by the default value of the FlushTime property. If an event is flushed while it is being parsed by the probe, the buffer is discarded and the incomplete alarm is logged as invalid. If too many events are being flushed before completion, you might need to increase the flush time interval.
