Answered SNMP Traps from Application in SCOM 2007 R2

    Hi Guys,

    We are planning to integrate Foglight an ORACLE DB Monitoring Tool with SCOM using SNMP Integration. Foglight tool is able to send SNMP Traps but it has many OID information for one alert. An example is given below,

    06:08:20 09/07/12 0 10.71.77.28 0

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4 6 60

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.1 String Value of Execute Count (47496.00 executions) is significantly higher than the typical observed behavior for this timeframe (ranging up to 43164.11 executions).

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.2 String DBO_Agent_Model

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.3 String 113c965c-a21a-4356-8a8e-3367aa48a92c

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.4 String abc_standard

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.5 String 8af7250f-7805-4119-afab-04d9c8484428

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.6 String DBO - Execute Count Baseline

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.7 String 14f0049a-9bfc-4ddb-b4f6-2707bac5c344

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.8 String Instance Statistics

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.9 String 3

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.10 String abc.test.local

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.11 String 

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.12 String 

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.13 String https://foglight:8080/console/task/showAlarm?alarmId=/alarms/6b423dbc-c7cb-4fd5-aed3-0334690f31a2

    1.3.6.1.4.1.7572.1.4.14 String Fri Sep 07 06:08:20 BST 2012

    I want to display a message in SCOM as "Value of Execute Count (47496.00 executions) is significantly higher than the typical observed behavior for this timeframe (ranging up to 43164.11 executions). for the server abc.test.local  with instance abc_standard"

    IS there a ways to capture the trap by SCOM?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I think that the best idea is to implement System Center Orchestrator to catch/receive these SNMP TRAPs and create a formatted alert in SCOM.

    Maybe it's possible to pipe the alert info to a file and then read out the file?

    SNMP is just plain text so if you change the target of the SNMP traps to a log file scom can read the log file and get all the info out of there and alert.

    The big advantage is the fact that you'll have full control on the error messages in SCOM.

    More info on how to create SCOM to capture the trap:

    If you need more info please do not hesitate to ask.


    It's doing common things uncommonly well that brings succes.

    How do it do it. I tried the link you have provided but it is more confusing is there any example site available where I can follow the same for my requirement.
