Automated alarm notification
Is anyone aware of software, or perhaps a service, that will take SNMP traps, properly parse them, and perform the appropriate call outs based on certain content, after waiting 5 or 10 minutes for any alarms that don't clear? I looked at PagerDuty, but they don't do any SNMP trap parsing, and nothing with set/clear. Frank
Hi, you could use snmptt with an Exec-Command (SendMail, SMS, …) or define it as a passive service alert in Nagios / Icinga / $YourMonitoring. Jörg On 11 Feb 2016, at 22:51, Frank Bulk wrote:

I've used Zabbix, Nagios, etc to handle receiving and parsing traps, set/clear etc. Then have them send a trap (or via email to script that sends a trap) to SIPShout to actually generate the callout. It's worked well. -Josh On Thu, Feb 11, 2016 at 2:51 PM, Frank Bulk <frnkblk@iname.com> wrote:

datadog will do this without issue, and if you have a small number of hosts it's nearly free. -j On Thu, Feb 11, 2016 at 1:51 PM, Frank Bulk <frnkblk@iname.com> wrote:

Check_MK over OMD. Good event parsing capabilities. Easy to set up, nagios core but rewritten app for much better performance. Multisite master/slave capabilities +++. Free or supported. Your pick. On Feb 11, 2016 9:26 PM, "John Adams" <jna@retina.net> wrote:

We've been using Statseeker for some time now. It costs but it's been well worth the investment as a monitoring solution with the ability to parse incoming syslog messages and generate alerts.

Thanks, but I don’t see that datadog can ingests SNMP traps – can you point me in the right direction?

Where I currently work we use CastleRock SNMPc and feed alarms based off certain trap conditions/time events into another bit of software called EasyCall which then sends out SMS messages to the engineers; however both are Windows based only. $Job-1 used Nagios to parse the traps and send SMS from a mobile phone directly connected to the server after the conditions were met.
OpenNMS has direct support for SNMP traps and multistage alerting. It's a pain in the ass to setup (depending on what you're doing*) but it's free and very high performance. * if all your MIBS are already supported then 90% of the work is done and it's not so bad. Just setup multistage alerts for 5 and 10 minute intervals depending on if something clears or if someone responds to the alert. They support lots of alert types. SMTP, SMS, voice call, a few ticketing systems, XMPP, twitter and probably more. On 2/11/2016 4:51 PM, Frank Bulk wrote:
