What do the Icons in USM Mean?

If you’re using Nimsoft Monitor or Snap, you’ve probably noticed the icons that appear in the various views and in the tree in the Unified Service Manager (USM) portlet.

The following icons indicate the highest severity alarm for a device:

 = Major

 = Minor

 = Warning
