with a service or safety affecting condition and/or event.
These are based on ITU severities except that info is added.
cleared -

It is not required (unless specifically stated elsewhere
on a case by case basis) that an alarm condition that has
been cleared will produce a notification or other event
containing an alarm severity with this value.
indeterminate -
Indicates that the severity level cannot be determined.
critical -
Indicates that a service or safety affecting condition has
occurred and an immediate corrective action is required.
major -
Indicates that a service affecting condition has occurred
and an urgent corrective action is required.
minor -
Indicates the existence of a non-service affecting
condition and that corrective action should be taken in
order to prevent a more serious (for example, service or
safety affecting) condition.
warning -
Indicates the detection of a potential or impending service
or safety affecting condition, before any significant
effects have been felt.
info -
Indicates an alarm condition that does not meet any other
severity definition. This can include important, but
non-urgent, notices or informational events.
