Indeed , that would help to get snmp trap whenever slapd/slurp gets pb ! 
redirecting to snmp what is already done in syslog would be a first step.

This will make ldap server to become "read-only". I believe it will be cool if ldap server would be able to send snmp trap on such occasion. Although this example is rather meaningless (because net-snmp agent is able to monitor available space in a partition) one can imagine situations where such kind of notification will help to identify problem rather fast. As another less stupid example please consider following: for some odd reason slurpd is not able to update his replica. If you don't look in log files you will hardly notice this early enough.
