-The **Alarm Adapter** is responsible for managing alarm situations in RIC cluster and interfacing with **Northboubd** applications such as **Prometheus AlertManager** to post the alarms as alerts. AlertManager takes care of deduplicating, silencing and inhibition (suppressing) of alerts, and routing them to the VESAgent, which, in turn, takes care of converting alerts to fault and send to ONAP as VES events.
