- Method Detail
  - acknowledge
```
void acknowledge(String ackUser)
```
    acknowledge
    
    Parameters:
    
    ackUser - a String object.
  - unacknowledge
```
void unacknowledge(String ackUser)
```
    unacknowledge
    
    Parameters:
    
    ackUser - a String object.
  - clear
```
void clear(String ackUser)
```
    clear
    
    Parameters:
    
    ackUser - a String object.
  - escalate
```
void escalate(String ackUser)
```
    escalate
    
    Parameters:
    
    ackUser - a String object.
  - getType
```
AckType getType()
```
    getType
    
    Returns:
    
    a AckType object.
  - getAckId
```
Integer getAckId()
```
    getAckId
    
    Returns:
    
    a Integer object.
  - getAckUser
```
String getAckUser()
```
    getAckUser
    
    Returns:
    
    a String object.
  - getAckTime
```
Date getAckTime()
```
    getAckTime
    
    Returns:
    
    a Date object.
  - getNode
```
OnmsNode getNode()
```
    Might be null but probably supported already by most implementations, but still, here for convenience. Also guarantees that this is available in this API if the model changes where the node is not directly related and de-facto support is removed.
    
    Returns:
    
    the related OnmsNode, null if non available or doesn't make sense
  - getSeverity
```
OnmsSeverity getSeverity()
```
