Resolution
*Warning: Irreparable database damage can occur. This procedure should only be performed by users familiar with SQL Server Management Studio. Databases should be backed up prior to performing this procedure.*
- The Web Applications "Alarms" page pulls data from the vAlarmLogview in the ION_Data database
- Query, the vAlarmLog view in the ION_Data database to determine the ID of the alarm that needs to be removed
Be sure to backup the ION_DATA database before running any SQL queries
Example:
Use ION_Data
Select * from vAlarmLog
where SourceID = 7
order by TimestampUTC desc
3. Once you have determined the ID of the alarm that needs to be removed run the following query in SQL against the ION_Data database
