I have observed that in V6, when the class is nvserverd, the default
message
sent is what is formatted in trapd.conf. I don't understand it, but I think
it may be
wonderful.

Subject: RE: [NV-L] T/EC mapping
Don,
I set $* and the following occurred:
[1] private.enterpises.1783.1.1.1 #1033 Unexpected stop of broker server in
directory /u24/app/broker/data/defaults pid 233256 exit code 0
So it appears, that the trap being sent only sends var 1. I did your test
and the T/EC mapping does work correctly.
When leaving the T/EC slot mapping as default (blank) the T/EC fills in the
msg slot as so:
#1033 Unexpected stop of broker server in directory
/u24/app/broker/data/defaults pid 233256 exit code 0
and the hostname slot does get filled with the correct hostname (I checked
the reception log), where is NetView getting this information if it is not
from the varbinds? Also, how can I grab this information and include it in
the msg slot?
Thanks,
Vince

Vince,
I am still not sure what is being sent to NetView from MLM.
Do this: Open xnmtrap and put $* in the pop-up notification option.
When this trap is received, a pop-up will appear with each variable
received,
listed and numbered on a new line in the pop-up window.
I think you will find that you are not receiving variable 2 or 3 at NetView
(trapd).
Here is a command that you can use to test this,
snmptrap <your NetView> \
.1.0 "" 6 1033 "" \
.1.0 OctetString Vince \
.1.0 OctetString Was \
.1.0 OctetString Here
This should also send "Here" to T/EC in the msg variable if you have set
msg=$V3
This will verify that NetView & T/EC slot mapping is set correctly.
Best regards,
Don Davis
