Hi Dojo,
We recently added SNMP-Alarm forwarding to an overall SNMP-Collector and would like to suppress the sending of relatively short alarms to that system.
Just like hysteresis on alarm templates, we want to delay the alarms on DataMiner to a 3rd party system; meaning say only if an alarm lasts for 5 minutes in DataMiner, the SNMP notification should be sent to the 3rd party system.
Without touching the alarm template, is there any way to achieve this ?
(this is for first time alarms, so SNMP resend notifications isn't what I am looking for)
You could use the correlation engine to set an alarm property when the alarm is persistent for more than x minutes.
Using an alarm filter, you can then forward alarms where this property is set.
Thank you Ive.
