Can someone help me with applying NetView rules to filter events sent to
T/EC.

I have built a simple 3 step rule 

1)      Event Stream (set to pass all events) 
2)      Event Attributes (set to pass all events where severity! = 1 i.e.
don't pass events of severity Indeterminate) 
3)      Forward

I then implement the rule (there are several ways to do this - but I have
been using the serversetup GUI). This must be working because my rule file
is entered into /usr/OV/conf/tecint.conf

Problem. All events including Indeterminate severity are passed to T/EC.
(Indeterminate events have a T/EC status of UNKNOWN). I can't stop it. No
matter what nodes I enter after Event Stream ( if it is set to pass all
events), all events are sent to T/EC i.e. nothing is filtered out.

If I  amend Event Stream (to block all events) - nothing arrives in T/EC. It
appears as if my rules are not being processed. Can someone else duplicate
this - as I think it might be a bug. However, I do not want to raise a PMR
until I'm sure I'm not doing something wrong.

Thanks for your help
