Alarm Database Groups

(Property name: AlarmDatabaseGroups)

For the majority of applications, there is no need to create extra alarm databases, but locations that maintain large distributed systems might choose to do so. For those that do, it is possible to create display groups so that alarms from several, but not all, databases can be viewed at the same time.

Database groups are defined as an application property, AlarmDatabaseGroups. Multiple groups can be defined within the single property, each with a list of databases. Separate the groups with semi-colons and database names within each group by commas.
