Dear,
Is it possible to delay alarming for amount of time in parameter that capture the traps and use MapAlarm option (like is possible to do with parameters in alarm template with HYST ON and HIST OFF) .
Wish to avoid alarming when alarm state is shorter then 10s. For example – received trap invoke alarm, but 1s after new trap clear this alarm. Don’t want to show such short event on alarm list.
Thank you.
Hi Jurica,
Working with a time hysteresis is indeed a good way to lower the amount of alarms, especially if there are a lot of them that are very short.
The MapAlarm option doesn't provide the possibility to define a hysteresis. Alarms are always immediately created. Some changes in the connector will be needed to support this. In this case it's probably best to process the traps in a QAction (that sets the values in normal parameters) which is explained here: https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/devguide/Connector/ConnectionsSnmpTraps.html#processing-traps-in-a-qaction.
Which connector is this about?
Hi Tom,
Thank you! It is custom connector for monitoring our IoT concentrators. Connector is extremely simple (consist of only one parameter with map alarm option) and satisfy most our needs.
It would be nice to have possibility for hysteresis on easy way but it seems that if we want more comfort should spend little more energy.
Best regards, Jurica
