Checking Active Alarms

The alarm information includes alarm type, alarm severity, and a brief description for each active alarm on the Services Router. To view the active alarms, select Alarms in the J-Web interface, or enter the following CLI show commands:

show chassis alarms
show system alarms

Note: If a Services Router has active alarms and you have not displayed the View Alarms page, Alarms in the taskbar appears in red. After you view the alarms, Alarms returns to white. If new alarms become active, Alarms is red until you again display the View Alarms page.

Figure 119 shows the View Alarms summary page. Click an alarm in the list of active alarms to display a detailed alarm message.
