**Delete the alarm and all records associated with the alarm:** PARCview will attempt to delete the alarm and associated data.

**Delete the alarm, but assign all associated records to a different alarm:** Migrate data associated with the alarm to a different alarm (see below).

**Mark the alarm inactive, but do not delete records:** Make the alarm inactive and keep associated data. Alarms can be reactivated.

**Next:** Proceed to the next step.

**Cancel:** Back out without saving changes.

If migrating data to a new alarm, choose how to handle the migration.

**Convert to Manual Alarm Events:** Rather than associate the alarm event data with an alarm definition, this will create manual-type alarm events associated with the base UTag.

**Migrate to Server Alarm:** Choose an alarm from the grid. Alarm event data will be migrated to this alarm definition.

**Next:** Proceed with the migration.

**Cancel:** Back out without saving changes.

In all cases, a final **Yes** or **No** prompt will confirm the action to be taken.
