From my experience
1. It can trigger a custom script on an alert. So if you can make the script
insert tickets into you ticketing system to automatically log a support
call, anything is possible.
Or are you looking to do it the other way round? It's in our inventory
database, so it needs to be monitored?
Yes, it can do that too. You can write a script to interrogate your
inventory database, and populate bb-hosts. I have done both.
2. See below
3. See below
4. See below
5. Can't do patch management, but a script can trigger an alert if a system
has not been patched in some time.
Likewise, you can have a list somewhere of all patches that should be on a
system, and have a script compare what is currently installed to what should
be installed.
Trigger alerts as appropriate.

Xymon can do some really spectacular things using scripts, and you are
really only limited by your imagination, and ability to script.

If you have someone that knows scripting (e.g. Perl), you can run any scripts that are triggered by alerts. These can be used to generate tickets if your ticketing system has the necessary interface.

It works with Devmon, which uses SNMP polling (not traps).


P.S. The word "please", is always welcome when asking for information.

hello

1) integration with rt3 works fine. Just send an email to your rt3 mbox. 

At my company we send alerting to a syslog and from the syslog to SMART and from SMART to ITSM. It's working a little :)

oau

We have successfully integrated Xymon with ITSM/Remedy although I would
not recommend using the system we use since it's a) complicated and b)
relies on using some very expensive software that we happen to use for
other things as well; it's not something you are going to have lying
around!

 
As others have said, all you need is scripting knowledge and knowing how
to inject tickets in to your ticket system.
