+# VOLTHA Alarm Library
+
+This directory provides a common library for the creation of Alarms by adapters within VOLTHA
+and should be used to insure that published alarms from different adapters use the same format
+
+## Alarm Manager Creation
+
+Each device handler should create an instance of the **AdapterAlarms** alarm manager shortly after
+initial activation. This alarm manager is responsible for the formatting and sending of alarms
+by the adapters.
+
+## Raising and Clearing Alarms
+
+To create a specific alarm, create an instance of the specific alarm you wish to publish
+(such as **OnuDiscoveryAlarms** for newly discovered ONUs) and pass in alarm specific information
+to the initialize.
+
+Once constructed, you can call the alarm's **_raise_alarm()_** method to format and send an active
+alarm, or the **_clear_alarm()_** to clear it.
+
+# Basic Alarm Format
+
+Here is an JSON example of a current alarm published on the kafka bus under the 
+_voltha.alarms_ topic:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "voltha.adtran_olt.000198f9c4d2ae80.Discovery",
+  "description": "adtran_olt.000198f9c4d2ae80 - ONU DISCOVERY Alarm - DISCOVERY - Raised",
+  "logical_device_id": "0001112233445566",
+  "state": "RAISED",
+  "category": "PON",
+  "severity": "CRITICAL",
+  "resource_id": "0",
+  "type": "EQUIPMENT",
+  "reported_ts": 1532031872.0,
+  "raised_ts": 1532031872.0,
+  "changed_ts": 0.0,
+  "context": {
+    "serial-number": "ADTN17230031",
+    "pon-id": "0"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+# Remaining Work Items
+This initial code is only a prelimenary sample. The following tasks need to be
+added to the VOLTHA JIRA or performed in the SEBA group.
+
+- Get a list from SEBA/VOLTHA on required alarms 
+
+- Provide example JSON output and verify that it meets SEBA's requirements
+
+- Get feedback from other OLT/ONU developers on any needed changes
+
+- For the logical_device_id, this is reported in the format that the device adapter has which
+  includes the vcore number (often 0001) in the first four nibble.  Should this be normalized to
+  all zeros?
+
+- Support alarm_suppression capability (via IAdapter call). Needs investigation
+
+- TODO: Probably a few more.  Look through code for more 'TODO' Notes
