Environment

Business Service Manager 4.5

Situation

Custom algorithm using alarms will cause high memory utilization, high processor utilization and poor performance.

Resolution

Never use alarms in custom algorithm and instead, create a property using MODL properties on the "latest" alarm. Please look at the Chapter 10 Using the HierarchyFile, <property> section in "Adapter and Integration Guide" and search for LAST function for MODL properties.
