We are in the process of modifying the trapd.conf file from a vendor to
include a TEC Class and TEC Slots using the optional EVENT_CLASS Keyword.
After modifying the trapd.conf file and running it through the
nvaddtrapdconf utility we discover that the trapd.conf file is corrupted.
Extract from trapd.conf file follows:
SM_IC_Error {1.3.6.1.4.1.733} 6 1111 a 4 0 "SMARTS Root
Causes"
InCharge: Configuration Alert: $1. Restart InCharge
EVENT_CLASS SM_IC_Error
SDESC
This event indicates that an internal InCharge configuration
error
occurred. InCharge restart is recommended.
EDESC
#
# end of file processing
#
When we run the xnmtrap utility to bring up the Event Configuration dialog
box we receive a error dialog box indicating:
Message text follows:
" did not find a SDESC keyword in line #29 of
"/usr/OV/conf/C/Trapd.conf":EVENT_CLASS SM_IC Error. "
When we take a look at the "/usr/OV/conf/C/Trapd.conf" file we find the
following. The highlighted line below is line 29:
###################
#
# Operator Actions:
#
ACTION 20 "Print Events" /usr/OV/bin/printEvents
EVENT_CLASS SM_IC_Error
SDESC
Print events to printer with title and some filtering.
EDESC
ACTION 20 "Print Events with Topology Information"
/usr/OV/bin/printEvents -s
SDESC
If we leave remove the optional EVENT_CLASS Keyword from the last entry in
the modified trapd.conf file everything seems to work ok.
When I run the nvaddtrapdconf command against the enclosed file named
conf1.txt everything works correctly and the /usr/OV/conf/C/trapd.conf is
updated correctly. You can run xnmtrap and review the changes.
However, when I perform the same operation on the file named conf2.txt all
appears to run correctly. When you try to launch the xnmtrap application, it
errors out with a message about line 29. The only difference between the two
files is that there is no EVENT_CLASS keyword defined for the last entry in
file one. Whenever we add the EVENT_CLASS to the last item, it errors out.
If you edit the trapd.conf file and delete the offending line 29, xnmtrap
works correctly.
