I suggested:

It occurs to me that another model you could consider would be to run
a local CA client on each IOC that subscribes to alarm events for all
local records, and forwards them to the log server; this would then
make use of CA's queue/ cache mechanism, and would mean this CA
client doesn't need to keep its own queue of messages going to the
log server, all that queueing would be done for you by CA.  This

would avoid having to add the hook at all...

------ This has a lot of
appeal. It could cache the last alarm monitor for every record.

Actually it wouldn't even need to do that itself if its job is just to

pass the alarm changes on to the log server -- CA will automatically

queue and cache the most changes for every channel on the clients

behalf, until it finally manages to deliver them to the client.
