=============================
Delete an Alarm Using the CLI
=============================

You can manually delete an alarm that is not automatically cleared by the
system.

.. rubric:: |context|

.. warning::

   Manually deleting an alarm should not be done unless it is absolutely
   clear that there is no reason for the alarm to be active.

You can use the command :command:`fm alarm-delete` to manually delete an alarm
that remains active/set for no apparent reason, which may happen in rare
conditions. Alarms usually clear automatically when the related trigger or
fault condition is corrected.
