Alarm Server

Alarm Server receives the error messages sent mostly by error_msg program, for example to set level2 problem alarm type following:

error_msg l2_check clonalarm l2_check trigger 2 ERROR 1 \"Level 2 problem\"

and to clear that alarm type following:

error_msg l2_check clonalarm l2_check trigger 0 INFO 1 \"Level 2 Ok\"

where:

l2_check - sender program name (twice ?)
clonalarm - mandatory keyword to distinguish alarm message
trigger - alarm subsystem name (trigger, online, etc) in database table 'clonalarm'
2 ERROR - to report error message
0 INFO - to erase error message
1 - alarm_id in database table 'clonalarm'

To create new alarm update clonalarm database (and clonalarm_help as well, but it is a mess ..).
