There is no such mechanism.  trapd on UNIX only writes to trapd.log.  You can
upload periodically into your RDBMs with traptosql but that is all.    In fact
you can use the trapd.log_Maint script to have that happen automatically, when
the trapd.log file rolls over.  Have a look at that script.  Then you can
configure trapd to invoke it at roll-over time (the -r option).

Subject:  [NV-L] configuring trapd to write to RDB






Hi all,

we use Netview6.0 on AIX 4.3.3 on one machine and oracle 7.3.4 server on another
machine. The aim is to write events, iptopology data and SNMP-Collect files
into to RDB. With the option of using Tivoli decision support on top for
analysing.

The RIM Object is working fine and we already use the RDB to store the
iptopology data in it.

Now we want to configure NV to write all events in the RDB as well instead of
writing into the flatfiles. Following the instructions in the UNIXDatabase
Redbook for NV6.0 we tried to configure through the Tivoli Framework but we are
missing the "migrate to SQL" button/option.

We tried to use the cmd commad traptosql -v but it seems that NV is still
writing into the flatfile only taking a snapshot of /usr/OV/log/trapd.log file.
How can we tell NV to write permanent into the RDB instead of the flatfiles?

Thanks in advance

Gruesse - Best regards
