== Alarms (and
In the table below "Notify" determines whether an alarm is shown on the "Dashboard" page, for release 3.11.2 and subsequent the alarm also has to be enabled for it to appear.
Introduction column:
# There was no alarm functionality in builds in the 3.0.0 and 3.1.x series
# Any alarm functionality where the column says "Legacy Cumulus" was available before 1.9.0 and introduced into MX in one of the releases between 3.2.0 and 3.5.4.
# Any alarm functionality where the column says "Cumulus 2" was requested for that withdrawn flavour, subsequently added to a 1.9.x release, introduced into MX in one of the releases between 3.2.0 and 3.5.4.
# New alarm functionality introduced in the range of releases 3.2.0 to 3.5.4 has that range shown (rather than the exact release).
# For alarm functionality first introduced in or after release 3.7.0, the release of introduction is shown in "Introduced" column.
# There were no changes to Alarm functionality between 3.7.1 and 3.8.4 inclusive, so if you are running one of the 3.8.x releases, the Wiki page that applies for "alarms" is [[Cumulus.ini_(MX_3.0.0_to_3.7.0)|the early MX releases page]], not this Wiki page.
# In the range of releases subsequent to 3.9.0 as covered by this Wiki page, the alarm functionality has been dramatically changing:
#* Latching of alarms was introduced at 3.9.1 (b. 3096), most alarms had no default for how long they stayed "latched", but at least one had a 12 hour default and at least one had an until end of day default.
#* At 3.9.2 (b.3097) reporting of notifications were added to the admin interface (called "Cumulus Dashboard" in the relevant release announcement at [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=148406#p148406 Cumulus MX Announcements and Download - PLEASE READ FIRST],
#* At 3.9.5 (b. 3100) the latching functionality was corected,
#* At 3.9.6 (b.3101) the alarm latch hours were all defaulted to 24 hours,
#* At 3.11.0 (build 3129) where the email functionality was added,
#* And at 3.11.2 (b. 3131) where the [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=154233#p154233 release announcement] says "this release sees the Alarms getting some more love".
"Shown on Settings page?" and "MX Section" columns:
* For releases between 3.2.0 and 3.10.5, all alarm related settings were "always" shown, and none required opening a "MX section".
* For release 3.11.0 and subsequent releases, the introduction of email functionality means there are now some alarm related settings on the "Internet Settings" page, where there is a section "Email Server Settings" that needs to be opened, and a ''master'' setting that determines whether other settings are shown or not.
"Label on Settings page" column:
* For releases between 3.2.0 and 3.10.5, all alarm related settings were shown using [[MX_Basic_info#dataTables|a HTML table]], so the entry in the label column in the table below quotes the text shown after the check box that starts the settings table row
* For release 3.11.0 and subsequent releases, the introduction of email functionality means there are now some alarm related settings where the label column quotes the text shown beside the individual setting, but all other alarm related settings quote the text shown after the check box that starts a settings table row
