Custom Severity Levels for Event Frames (EF) Triggers

Enable the ability for end-user to manage custom severity levels for event frames, to allow for better communications across response teams and business unit functions. Exposing EF severity levels within a PI Notifications messages is very helpful in providing quick context to an issue. However, it can create confusion when those severity levels do not map well to a specific company's internal standard for incident reporting in either the severity level namings or qty of severity levels. EXAMPLE MAPPING PROBLEM: Event Frame = None, Information, Warning, Minor, Major, Critical Cust 1 = Normal, SEV5, SEV4, SEV3, SEV2, SEV1 Cust 2 = Good, Information, Warning, Major, Critical, Fatal Cust 3 = Clear, Indeterminate, Warning, Error, Fatal Cust 4 = Normal, Low, Medium. High, Critical In many of the above cases a Customer would be challenged in sending the EF severity level in a notification given with their internal mapping is either in conflict or has no context. Below is my specific mapping issue/challenge. EF Level to Cust Level Mapping: Critical = Fatal Major = Critical Minor = Major Warning = Warning Information = Data Issue None = Normal

    My use case for this would be to map event severity to another system that is generating events so the users see the same "severity" level for events in both systems. The other system has been operating long before we had PI, and now that we're exposing those events in PIVision the users want to see that the severity of the event matches the system generating the event.
