TEC forwarding has nothing to do with ESE.automation.
Take your rule out of there. Most TEC rules (which have Forward) in them are
bad rules to have in ESE.automation, which should never contain a Forward.
TEC forwarding is accomplished by configuring /usr/OV/conf/tecint.conf. And
this file will not exist until you use the Tivoli GUI (or SMIT) to Configure -->
Configure event forwarding to TEC.
You might want to review the steps in the Installation and Configuration Guide
(Chapter 8 for V5).
As for a rule, set the initial event stream node to "Block" then add a Trap
Settings for NetView's 58916864 (Node Up) and connect that with the initial
event stream. Then add another Trap Settings fro NetView's 58916865 (Node Down)
and connect that also to the initial event stream. Do not connect the two Trap
settings together. Then add a Forward, and connect each of the two Trap
Settings nodes to it. Got it? Two arrows out of the initial node, one to each
Trap Setting, then an arrow from each Trap Setting to the Forward. Whatever you
name this ruleset, that is the name you want to put in the config dialog so it
will be stored in tecint.conf. Once you have a tecint.conf, you can always just
edit it.
I you don't see your events over in TEC, do wtdumprl and look over there at the
trap reception log. If they still aren't there, then you will want to do
"nvtecia -reload" to reload the rule. Still not there? Then look in
/etc/Tivoli/tec/cache on the NetView machine. If you see them being added
there, then you have connectivity problems to the TEC server.
Good luck.

Subject: [NV-L] Simple Rule for NetView to TEC?
Does anyone have a quick rule to only allow OV_Node_Up and OV_Node_Down
events to be sent from NetView to TEC? When I create a rule within the Rule
Builder
GUI and implement it with the ESE.automation file - events do not get passed
al all.
