Hi!
Just to comment on your examples:
>>  *   re-configuration of severities
I do not think that changing the alarm severity profile should change the severity levels of *existing* alarms. 
At the time those alarm state changes appeared it was according to the configuration at *that* time. 
Strange if a configuration change affected previous alarm states. 
Therefore, no alarm state changes should be sent for a reconfiguration of severity levels.

>>  *   a transient network issue
See Appendix G (especially Table 4), the system should not send unnecessary alarm state changes for transient changes.
Hysteresis functions, alarm throttling etc are mechanisms outside the scope of this alarm model that should be managed by 
the system in order not to send too high alarm rates.
