Admin Console | Services | Service Builder | click on 'Alarm Filters' icon next to a Service to create an Alarm Filter | click 'Add' | notice there are no Rule Names listed in the 'Filter by Rule' box. - none of the Rule Names show up as they do on the Federated, to create the filter against. Normally, on a stand alone FMS or on Federated (child) FMS', all the Rule Names will appear in the 'Filter by Rule' box.
In a Federated environment, the Federator should not have a set of Rules for the Cartridges installed. In my environment, setting up the Federator as per the Foglight documentation, the step to set the \fms_home\config\federation.config and starting the FMS comes BEFORE loading a superset of the cartridges onto the Federator. It looks like once the FMS Federator starts in Federation mode, Foglight knows not to install Cartridge rules when the Cartridges are loaded in.
Notice, on the Federator, if it has been setup correctly according to the Federation Field Guide.pdf: Foglight Admin Console on the Federator | Administration | Rules & Notifications | Manage Rules - you do not see a list of Rules here that relate to the Cartridges that are loaded into the Federator.
Note also, Rules will not propagated from the child FMS' to the Federator FMS.
