Alarm priorities are configured as numbers from 1 to 1000. These are mapped in server configuration
to named severities with colors and behaviors. You can remove severities but the numbers used by
them in the database will remain, and when alarms occur the next lowest severity will be used.
However, the severity drop-down field on the database item may appear blank when it is not mapped to a
severity. This tool can be used to:
- Tidy severities by remapping the priorities which are unmapped to the next lowest severity.
- Allow you to remap all items using one severity into another severity.
A prebuilt version of the tool is available at the download link below. Unzip the files to a separate folder and run the .exe program.
Source code for the tool so that you can build and modify the tool yourself is at: https://github.com/GeoSCADA/SeverityCleaner
