title: Getting the Ambari SNMP setup - plugin to monitor Dynatrace
body: <p>Is there a way to write a plugin (python) to allow Dynatrace to monitor logs (ambari-alerts.log) from Ambari?</p>
  
  <p>Something like this: <a href="https://github.com/apache/ambari/tree/trunk/contrib/alert-snmp-mib" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/apache/ambari/tree/trunk/contrib/alert-snmp-mib</a></p>
  
  <p>Also take a look at this sample code: <a href="https://github.com/Dynatrace/dynatrace-api/blob/master/snmp/IBMDataPower/IBMDataPower.py" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/Dynatrace/dynatrace-api/blob/master/snmp/IBMDataPower/IBMDataPower.py</a> This is to use the device id and the parameter names to poll SNMP and get the metrics.</p>
  
  <p>I need some help and starters on getting the logs from Ambari and allowing it be monitored by Dynatrace. The plugin should generate an access code. Any help would be appreciated.</p>
