Alarms

An alarm is an unexpected condition in EDA or the EDA-managed network that can be cleared by attaining some corrective state. The primary purpose of an alarm is to bring some abnormal condition to the attention of an operator, and thereby support debugging and resolution.
Note: An alarm is distinct from an event. An alarm represents a condition that should be corrected by reaching some associated corrective state. An event is a one-time occurrence and message (typically a log entry) about something that has occurred in the system. No future state is expected to clear an event, and it does not require an action to clear. Alarms are stateful; events are not.

Alarms in EDA can arise from a variety of sources, including the EDA system itself and the wide array of supported apps. For any alarm, the source/affected object is identified as part of the alarm in the resource, group, and kind fields.

Alarms are also associated with a namespace; this could be the base EDA namespace, or some other namespace. Users can only see and interact with alarms in namespaces for which they have access permissions.

Some alarms can be generated by intent-based apps within EDA. EDA treats such alarms as having been cleared if the app stops reporting that alarm.

Alarms associated with apps are described in documentation for individual apps.

Alarms on standby clusters

Standby cluster alarms can be important in understanding the state of redundancy in an EDA cluster. It is therefore useful to be able to see alarms generated on a standby cluster member even when working with the active member.

EDA supports this using the `cluster_member` field, which is set to the name of the cluster member that raised the alarm. This allows an operator to view alarms for all clusters, but still distinguish alarms for the active cluster from those for a standby cluster. For alarms that are not cluster-specific, this field remains unset.

Alarms in the EDA GUI

The EDA GUI includes several summary views of alarms known to EDA:

  • An alarm summary is displayed on the EDA home page.
  • A more detailed summary of alarms affecting key EDA components (clusters, Git servers, App catalogs and registries) is displayed on the main Alarms Summary page
  • The Alarms list displays a list of all active alarms
From the Alarm list, you can do the following for individual alarms, or as a bulk operation to a number of concurrently selected alarms:
  • Suppress an alarm: this sets the suppressed flag for the current instance of the alarm. By default, suppressed alarms are not displayed in the EDA GUI.
    Note: You can still view suppressed alarms by choosing "Show all alarms" from the Alarm List Table Settings and Actions menu.
  • Delete an alarm: this removes all history of the alarm. Deletion is only allowed for cleared alarms. The option is disabled for active alarms.
  • Acknowledge an alarm: this sets the Acknowledged flag for the current instance of the alarm.

Alarm definition resources

EDA core services and EDA applications document their supported alarms as alarm definition resources. These resources are available via the query .namespace.resources.cr.core_eda_nokia_com.v1.alarmdefinition. This query allows operators to retrieve a list of supported alarms that is specific to their deployed apps and versions.

The alarm definition specifications include the following fields:

Table 1. Alarm definition specifications
Specification Description
SourceGroup

Specifies the group of the resource that raises the alarm, for example, interfaces.eda.nokia.com.

Identifies the application that raises the alarm. EDA core alarms have the source group core.eda.nokia.com.

Type Specifies the alarm type, for example, InterfaceDown.
Description Specifies the description of the alarm.
ClusterSpecific

If this specification is true, the alarm is raised against a specific EDA cluster.

For example, a raised DeploymentDegraded alarm specifies which EDA cluster (active or standby) has a Kubernetes Deployment with one or more replicas that are not running.

Severity (optional)

Specifies alarm severity.

If not set, the alarm severity is variable. For example, the CPUThresholdExceeded alarm increases severity based on the CPU utilization value.

Kind and Group (optional)

Specifies the Kind and Group of the resource which the alarm is associated with.

For example, an InterfaceDown alarm is raised against an Interface resource. The Kind is Interface and the Group is interfaces.eda.nokia.com.

Note: An alarm definition is unique to the combination of SourceGroup and Type specifications. For example, both the Routing and Services apps can raise an alarm type BFDSessionDown. These are separate alarm definitions.

Table 3. Elements of the Alarms list
# Name Function
1 Alarms menu The Alarms menu includes:
  • common table controls
  • multi-row actions unique to alarms
  • special actions unique to the alarms list
2 Alarm count Displays the number of current alarms of various severities.
3 Alarm quick filters Allows you to hide alarms using the following filters:
  • Cleared – filters out cleared alarms
  • Suppressed – filters out suppressed alarms
  • Child alarms – filters out child alarms

These filters are all selected by default.

Columns

The list of alarms displays the following columns by default.

Table 4. Default alarm display columns
Column Description
Namespace Indicates the namespace to which the alarm belongs.

Alarms that are not specific to a namespace, such as platform certificate alarms, do not have or display a namespace value.

Type The alarm type, as defined by the alarm itself. For example, InterfaceDown.
Severity The importance of the alarm, as defined by the alarm itself. Supported severities are:
  • Critical
  • Major
  • Minor
  • Warning

You can click this column to sort by severity level.

Resource Indicates the name of the resource that this alarm is present on.
  • For example, if an alarm was raised against a Fabric, the endpoint would be set to the name of the specific instance of a Fabric the alarm was raised against.
  • A resource may also be an instance of a resource in the Kubernetes cluster where EDA is deployed. For example, the resource may be the name of a Pod.
Kind Indicates the kind of resource the alarm is present on.
  • For example, this is set to Fabric if an alarm is raised against a Fabric resource.
  • The kind may also be a component with the EDA core - for example, ConfigEngine or StateEngine.
Group Indicates the group of the resource the alarm is present on.

For example, this is set to fabrics.eda.nokia.com if an alarm is raised against a Fabric.

Acknowledged Indicates whether the alarm has been acknowledged (True or False)
Occurrences The number of occurrences for the alarm.
Last Changed Indicates the time the alarm last changed state. The timestamp is updated any time an alarm changes state between cleared and not cleared.

The following alarms can be optionally displayed in the list of alarms by selecting Manage columns from the Alarms menu.

Table 5. Non-default alarm display columns
Column Description
Name Indicates the name of the alarm.
Description The description of the alarm from the alarm's encoded Description field.
Cleared Whether the alarm has been cleared by an operator. Possible values are:
  • True
  • False

This column is visible if the Active only filter is turned off.

Cluster Member For EDA platform alarms, the EDA cluster member to which the alarm applies.
Probable Cause The probable cause of the alarm, from the alarm's encoded Probable Cause field.
Remedial Action The suggested remedial action to resolve the alarm, from the alarm's encoded Remedial Action field.
Acknowledged Until If the alarm has been temporarily acknowledged, this indicates the date and time at which the acknowledgement expires.
Last Acknowledged Indicates the date and time when the most recent acknowledgement occurred for this alarm.
Last Acknowledged By Indicates the user who last acknowledged the alarm.
Suppressed Until If the alarm has been temporarily suppressed, this indicates the date and time at which the suppression expires. This column is visible if the Hide suppressed filter is turned off.
Suppressed Indicates whether the alarm has been suppressed. This column is visible if the Hide suppressed filter is turned off.
Last Suppressed Indicates the date and time when the most recent suppression occurred for this alarm.
Last Suppressed By Indicates the user who last suppressed the alarm.
Source Resource The EDA-managed resource from which the alarm originates.
Source Kind The kind of resource from which the alarm originates.
Source Group The group of the resource from which the alarm originates.
JS Paths The EDB entry which triggered the raising or clearing of the alarm, in JSPath notation. For example, if the alarm pertains to an interface operational state, this may be the JSPath: .node{.name=="spine-1"}.srl.interface{.name=="ethernet-1/14"}
Parent Alarms Indicates whether the alarm is associated with one or more parent alarms. It is common for alarms to have one or more parents. For example, an InterfaceDegraded alarm may be caused by one or more of its component members being down; that condition is itself the subject of a separate alarm. This column is visible if the Root cause only filter is turned off.
Targets Affected Indicates the number of child items which show the correlation between an alarm and the target it affects.
