DB calculates the percentage of usage of the DIMSU parameters and
sends a message to SysDep to generate an alarm when 90%, 100% are used
or 10% are free again. To avoid an overflow of messages only one 90%-message
is sent. This is triggered by a flag per parameter. For this purpose
256 bytes of DB_D_RESERVE_CC_TBL (10) are used.
The flags are reset after a restart (reload, hard restart or soft
restart). That means that the alarm messages could occur again, when
the DIMSU parameter are used although they has been sent already before
the restart.
If the value of a DIMSU parameter is changed by AMO DIMSU the flags
are reset. The alarm message could occur again afterwards.
The existing SWU central alarm 24 (SYSTEM MESSAGES) will be assigned
to the DIMSU warning messages. The error counter of this alarm will be
incremented by 8 in case of 90% DIMSU parameter usage, by 10 in case
of 100% usage and it will be reset to 0 if 10% are free again. After
proper setting of VADSU (see administration part) this results minor,
major or no alarm depending on the DIMSU warning messages.
