The monitoring server that is designated to handle the checks for a
particular host will worry about traps for it. So if you have a host being
monitored by your slave cluster, you'll need to either send your traps to
all the hosts in the slave cluster or send traps to a load balancer vip
which will do that for you.

This doc
http://docs.opsview.org/doku.php?id=opsview2.10:snmptrapconfiguration still
pertains even though its for 2.x, it occurs to me that I don't see the same
documentation in the 3.x tree. Perhaps a link there or something would be
sufficient.

Three of your friends throw up after eating chicken salad.  Do you think:
"I should find more robust friends" or "we should check that refrigerator"?
