Periodic trap messages

Hi,

I'm looking at deploying Net-Snmp's snmpd as an agent on all of our linux boxes.  I have previously used a commercial SNMP agent that had the ability to send periodic heartbeats and as well as periodic traps for certain events like low diskspace and low free swap space.  I would like to retain this functionality with Net-Snmp.

Here's my snmpd.conf thus far for the diskspace traps:

  rocommunity <string>
  disk / 15%
  disk /tmp 15%
  disk /var 15%
  disk /usr 15%
  disk /fs/data-01 15%

  createUser internal MD5 <string>
  iquerySecName internal
  rwuser internal
  
  monitor -r 60 -o dskPath -o dskErrorMsg "dskTable" dskErrorFlag != 0

  informsink trap1 <string>

This will generate a low disk space trap once when the available diskspace for the partition drops below 15%.  I would like to change this to have it send it every hour until the issue clears.  I'm guessing this would require using the 'repeat' directive to reset the error flag periodically, but am unsure.

I got nothing thus far for the hearbeat traps.

Any help is appreciated,
Rajiv
