You view alarm information to determine whether problems exist. The method that you use to view the alarm information depends on the destination that you chose when you configured the alarm. You can view alarm information that is sent to the SDL trace log file (Cisco Unified Communications Manager) by using the Trace and Log Central option in Unified RTMT or by using a text editor. You can view alarm information that gets sent to local syslog by using the SysLog Viewer in Unified RTMT.
