    Abstract: A building automation system includes a plurality of subnets, an active broadcast management device configured on at least one of the subnets, a pool of virtual devices communicably connected to the active broadcast management device, each of the virtual devices in the pool of virtual devices configured to store a broadcast distribution table (BDT), one or more processors, and memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing instructions. When executed by the one or more processors, the instructions cause the one or more processors to transmit a health status message to each available virtual device in the pool of virtual devices, receive a health status response from each of the available virtual devices, and select, according to the health status responses, at least one of the virtual devices from among the available virtual devices as a backup virtual broadcast management device to the active broadcast management device.

    Abstract: A method for automatically managing and responding to alarms in a building management system. The method includes obtaining an operating procedure comprising a set of action items to be performed in response to an alarm in the building management system. The method includes determining, for an action item of the set of action items, whether the action item is capable of being performed automatically by the building management system or whether the action item requires user involvement. The method further includes in response to determining that the action item is capable of being performed automatically, automatically performing the action item by the building management system. The method further includes in response to determining that the action item requires user involvement, providing the action item to a user device for action by a user.
