Re: Query Collection

[James_Shanks@TIVOLI.COM]

If you are relying on Origin in your Query Collection Dnode, then yes, you
will need to go to TME 10 NetView V5.1 to get the fix to make that work.
That is where IX76094 is fixed.

If the timestamp in the event window is wrong, then it could be that the
user who started the events window does not have his $LANG variable or $TZ
set correctly when he starts it.

Subject:  Query Collection





Hi,
I'm trying to setup a ruleset with the "Query Database Collection" feature.
I'll compare with the Origin field.
This works fine when the Event is a NetView generated event like Node Down.
It find the hostname and everything is fine. But when an agent is sending
LinkDown there is no Origin in the data that the correlation daemon is
receiving, the hostname is not here and the rule will not work.
Is this problem the same as in the APAR: IX76094 ?
If, No, does anyone know how to solve the problem.

Another question I've got from the customer is that he is receiving wrong
timestamp on the events (trapd.log). But when he is collecting SNMP data
using "SNMP Data Collection", the timestamp is correct.
Anyone for a suggestion ?!

The environment is AIX &  NV V5.
