Jens -
On #2 , it is simply not possible in my experience for one NetView to show "NO
FMT found" and another not to if they truly are configured identically. I
would install the /usr/OV/conf/C/trapd.conf from the machine that is working to
the one that is not.
The only other explanation would be that the traps they are receiving differ
either by enterprise id, or generic and specific trap is. There can be no other
cause. How could there be if the trapd code is the same on both? Then it has
to be either in the config file (trapd.conf) or in the trap itself.

Subject: graphutility & different trap behavior
Hi to everybody
1. Is there a possibilty when using the graphutility of netview, to read
from a different file than the default /usr/OV/databases/snmpCollect ?
How can i manage this?
2. Another strange behavior of netview 5.1.1 has popped up, maybe someone
has an explanation.
We have two netview 5.1.1 installations in our company.
One is in productive and the other one in a testing environment.
We have created traps which are send from MLM to both management stations.
On the testing station the traps are received correctly, but on the
productive system we get a "no FMT in trapd.conf" message.
But we have configured both stations identically.
And when we check the eventconfiguration or the trapd.conf file manually,
the traps are correctly inserted.
What could be the cause for that?
We have some more cases where the productive and the testing station behave
completly different.
Has someone got same experiences, or knows the reason for that behavior.
What can we do to solve the problem.
