Right-click the Alarm DB View control and then click Properties. The AlmDbViewCtrl Properties dialog box appears.
Click the Database tab.
Configure the connection to the alarm database. Do the following:
In the Server Name box, enter the node name of the computer where the alarm database is installed.
In the Database Name box, type the database name.
