I double checked my config and I was actually using the IBMDOWN_NV selection
for the trap setting. I then selected IBM_NVNDWN_EV and it seem to work
fine. My question is what is the difference between the two and in the
documentation for internal netview traps, none of them show the IBM_xxxxx
parameter that seem to be available as selectable when configuring the trap
selection for the netview6000 enterprise trap definitions? Thanks again for
your help.

Offhand, no. But I do know how to find out. You can issue the trace
command,
nvcdebug -d all , and after that nvcorrd will trace his activity to the
nvcorrd.alog and .blog The traces are not documented any where but you
should
see what the enterprise Id is on the incoming traps and whether the ruleset
resolves that to FALSE or to TRUE as a match. Perhaps that will give you
a
clue. If you can ovstop netmon while you do this, even better, as there
will
be much less data in the trace.
But don't worry if the trace is a bit daunting. You can always open a
problem
to Support and get help reading it.

Subject: Ruleset Problems
Hello Everyone,
I am having a problem with getting a page sent out when a device goes down
that's being monitored in my map. Basically I have configured the ruleset
with the following parameters: event stream--->trap settings ( set using
netview6000 NDWN_EV )-->forward-->pager. I than create a dynamic workspace
and attach the ruleset to it. When I create the event it never displays the
event in the dynamic workspace or pages me. It does display in the event
window. If I modify the trap setting to look for a link down for a
proprietary trap definition, it works fine and even pages me like it should.
It seems as though the IBM_NDWN_EV doesn't get recognized for this ruleset
for some reason. I have double checked the enterprise trap OID value being
generated and it is the one for IBM_NDWN_EV. Does anyone have an ideas what
I am doing wrong?
