Ambari support SNMP for alerts and notifications but do Ambari Metrics also support SNMP for metric values?

@Mats Johansson to @Neeraj's point, Ambari provides SNMP traps for alerting, but to your point Ambari doesn't expose AMS metrics as an SNMP endpoint that can be queried, or walked by an SNMP client.

Yes. Link

With Alert Groups and Notifications, you can create groups of alerts and setup notification targets for each group. This way, you can notify different parties interested in certain sets of alerts via different methods. For example, you might want your Hadoop Operations team to receive all alerts via EMAIL, regardless of status. And at the same time, have your System Administration team receive all RPC and CPU related alerts that are Critical only via SNMP. To achieve this scenario, you would have an Alert Notification that handles Email for all alert groups for all severity levels, and you would have a different Alert Notification group that handles SNMP on critical severity for an Alert Group that contains the RPC and CPU alerts.
