abstract = {{The control system of the Hefei Light Source II (HLS-II) is a distributed system based on Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System. The alarm system of HLS-II is responsible for monitoring the alarm state of the facility and distributing the alarm message in time. The monitoring range of the alarm system covers the devices of HLS-II technical group and the server platform. Zabbix is an open-source software tool to monitor the server platform. Custom metrics collection is achieved by implementing external scripts written in Python and automated agent deployment discovers the monitored servers running with Zabbix agents. The alarm distribution strategy of the front end devices is designed to overcome alarm floods. The alarm system of HLS-II provides multiple messaging channels to notify the responsible staff, including WeChat, SMS and web-based GUI. The alarm system of HLS-II has been deployed since December 2022. The result shows the alarm system facilitates the operator to troubleshoot problem efficiently to improve the availability of HLS-II. }},
