An example of the alarm service property sheet is shown in Figure 232. The property sheet view of the alarm service displays all the recipients that are part of the alarm service and also has a capacity property that is visible and editable. The alarm service capacity property limits the number of records that are stored in the alarm service database. When the capacity is reached, the alarm records “roll”. This means that the newer records overwrite the oldest records.
