In a deployment where a high frequency of traps is expected, plan on using the batching capability of the VMware Smart Assurance Service Assurance Manager Adapter Platform to improve performance of the clients that process the notifications. The BATCH_NOTIFY_INTERVAL in the trap_mgr.conf configuration file determines the length of the interval between sending batches of notifications based on traps. It might be necessary to tune this value under the typical trap load, so plan on monitoring the client performance and adjusting this value.
