As an AlarmHandler user it has always struck me that there should be a
better way to manage alarms. In the real world it is quite common to
have a device sitting just on the edge of the MINOR alarm point,
creating nuisance alarms. We do not generally manage alarms by actively
changing HIGH or LOW, since these are set by system experts. This
leaves the user with the choice of disabling the alarm, which means that
if the device reaches the MAJOR parameter no alarm will be heard or
dealing with the nuisance alarms. Bad enough when a single channel
behave such. When you have thousands of channels, not uncommon for a few
to have this problem, especially during times of general machine
instability, such as start up. It would be nice to be able to separately
acknowledge or bypass MINOR alarms, a kind of "yeah we know we need to
look at you, you're alright for now call us when you get to the MAJOR
setpoint.
