Incidents are associated with security issues while alarms are associated with hardware/connectivity issues.

Notes

Enables viewing and exchanging text messages with other Avaya SBC administrative users to ensure that important system, security, or administrative information is relayed when necessary. This feature allows you to edit existing messages posted by other users, add new messages of your own, or delete outdated or expired messages. Only administrative level users can edit or delete other users' notes. All users can edit and delete their own notes.

Messages posted in this area are stored in the EMS database and are retained when the system is powered down. Messages are continually displayed until such time as they are explicitly deleted by an administrative user.
