Hi:
Another example where maximize severity doesn't work
is when you want to allow overrides:
MS will maximize in any case, so if you want to say
severity = override ? 0 : severity_of_input,
you also have to do that yourself.
See short "EPICS Interlock Experience" talk on
http://www.diamond.ac.uk/Technology/Controls/EPICS_programme.htm
from the Diamond EPICS meeting.
Maybe "minimize severity" should be added to the
database code, though. I'm often happy if at least
_something_ is working, and minimize severity
would provide me with a quick indication for that ;-)

You can create a calc record with the severities as input. There
you can do the MINIMUM you want, and push the result to an mbbi
record, which has severities for each value.

Subject: Minimize severity link
Hello. I'm wondering if there is a way to propagate the MINIMUM
severity from a database link. For example, my application has
fields for two types of data, sites and channels. If all channels
in a site are in alarm, I'd like to fire a common alarm. Or if all
sites for a channel are in alarm, I'd like to fire a common alarm.
So the common alarm record should always contain the lowest level
of severity for the group of records that link to it.
This should be a lot like maximize severity, but different.
Thanks for any help,
Harley.
