Hi Peter, You’ll need to install ‘clearwater-snmp-alarm-agent’ (part of the https://github.com/Metaswitch/clearwater-snmp-handlers code). It’s this process that’s responsible for raising alarms externally (so it uses the actual value of snmp_ip). Sprout only uses the value of snmp_ip to determine if alarms are enabled on the node, and so whether it should send the alarms internally to the alarm agent.
Our documentation on how to set up alarm support isn’t very good – we’re looking at improving this. Ellie From: Clearwater [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Skrzynski Sent: 14 October 2015 03:09 To: [email protected] Subject: [Clearwater] SNMP alarms Hi Clearwater. I was interested in using SNMP alarms for my Clearwater IMS (manual install of bono/sprout/homestead/ibcf/dns). But I am puzzled, because the documentation says that the external SNMP destination is configured. That would be the snmp_ip config item… • snmp_ip - the IP address to send alarms to (defaults to being unset). If this is set then Sprout, Ralf, Homestead and Chronos will send alarms - more details on the alarms are here. BUT, when I look at the code, the snmp_ip is only passed to the app as a flag, not an IP address. Namely “–alarms-enabled”. So my question is… How does Sprout know where to send the SNMP alarms, if the IP address is not passed into the software? Is there anything else that needs to be done / installed to get SNMP alarms working? Thanks, Peter.
