	That is expected behavior, including the fact that it may assert and reset alarms more than once during startup, so don't react to them immediately - wait until they've been up for awhile (you'll need to tune the value of "awhile").

	Dude....

[SNIP manpage="snmp.conf" section="proc"]
              Note:  This  situation  will not automatically trigger a trap to
                     report the problem - see the  DisMan  Event  MIB  section
                     later.

	Congrats on getting this far, tho'.
