any solution which will allow me to forward Nagios alerts to Netcool?

[Scott Xiao]

Hi Max
Thanks for your help!
I am now ok to use the snmptrap to send out alert. But it seems the
nagios doesn't involk the send_trap script to do the job.
I setup same on a vm with nagios and use my laptop with wireshark to
monitor incoming snmp traffic.
In localhost.cfg, I changed to 1 and 2 for current users to create
warning. 
I can see warning on nagios UI but still nothing to capture on sniffer
with 
port 162. unless I manual to send trap..anything I mssing? I also
attached 
the result that sniffer recieved, and my cfg as below. please advise,
Thanks!


define service{
        use                             local-service         ; Name of 
service
template to use
        host_name                       localhost
        service_description             Current Users
         event_handler                   send_trap
        event_handler_enabled            1
        check_command                   check_local_users!1!2
        }




commands.cfg

Does Netcool have a trap receiver?  If so, you can forward alerts with
SNMP.  We forward Nagios notifications to Spectrum by sending them as
traps using the NAGIOS-NOTIFY-MIB service and host events .. works
quite well.
