Acknowledging Alarms

You can acknowledge alarms to let other users know that an issue is being investigated or resolved, so no attention is required from their side.

Required Privileges

To perform these tasks, a user must have one of the following roles assigned: Company Owner, Company Administrator, Location Administrator.

Acknowledging Alarms

To manually resolve one or more alarms:

  1. Log in to Veeam Service Provider Console.

For details, see Accessing Veeam Service Provider Console.

Veeam Service Provider Console will display a list of all triggered alarms.

To narrow down the list of alarms, you can apply the following filters:

  • Alarm — search triggered alarms by name.
  • Status — limit the list of alarms by the alarm status (Resolved, Warning, Error, Information, Acknowledged).
  • Product — limit the list of the alarms by product for which the alarm is triggered (Veeam Backup & Replication (including public cloud backup), Veeam ONE, Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365, Veeam Agent).
  • Time Period — limit the list of alarms by the time when alarms were triggered.
  • Location — limit the list of alarms by location for which alarms were triggered. To limit the list of alarms by location, use filter at the top left corner of the Veeam Service Provider Console window.

  1. Select the necessary alarms in the list.
  2. At the top of the alarm list, click Acknowledge Alarm.

Alternatively, you can right-click the necessary alarm and choose Acknowledging Alarm.
