Re: Integrating SNMP TRAPS

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/docs/Integrating_SNMP_Traps_With_XI.pdf is a good start, but doesn't get you too far. snmptt is quite well documented too: http://snmptt.sourceforge.net/docs/snmptt.shtml as for snmptt.ini, make sure you don't forget to configure strip_domain_list! as for ...

clearing SNMP traps

Hi all, what's the best way to clear SNMP traps? In some cases (HP SIM for example), a CRITICAL trap isn't necessarily followed by a corresponding OK trap if an issue is resolved. I can run 'snmptraphandling.py "myhost" "SNMP Traps" "Normal" "somedate" "&...

Re: Manually making a host down

I'm actually happy with the notifications supressed, but I'd like to see service checks supressed too if a host is under maintenance :) yes, I have a custom event handler (defined as a command), which is a shell script that will, after reaching a certain number of soft/hard events for a particular s...

ok, we'll stick with fixed then, thanks!

Re: Integrating SNMP TRAPS

I started working with traps and found it not to be the most straight forward, mainly because of how the traps are sent by the source host/device/program. I assume you copied the MIBs in your mib directory, ran addmib for all of them, configured snmptt.ini and snmptt.conf? If yes, I'd recommend: - m...

flexible downtime behaviour

We just noticed that if you put a host under flexible scheduled downtime, but nagios doesn't pick up the host as down (as in reboot happening between two checks), the host will actually stay under downtime indefinitely. Is this working as intended? I had expected that if it received a host down trig...

Re: Manually making a host down

I have the same problem as the OP, is it intended that services will only get marked down if either set explicitely after scheduling downtime, as Mike has described? Notifications are surpressed for the services, but it seems that the checks (and subsequently potential event handlers) are executed a...
