Issue/Introduction

This technical article documents a design change in UIM 20.4 related to the columns shown when in the Group tab -> View Alarms.

Environment

Release : 20.4

Component : UIM OPERATOR CONSOLE - ALARM VIEWER

Cause

Working as designed as of 20.4CU1, Enhanced in 20.4 CU3 and later

Resolution

The enhancements made to remove some options from the Group View (irrelevant actions are removed from the 3 dots menu) as seen below.

It is expected that these actions are removed.  They are available in the Alarm Viewer and changes made to those settings will apply to all other alarm views.  This design ensures consistency across views.
