This is a multipart message in MIME format. Eric - I don't know how to tell you to get what you want outside of what they ship to you. According to a quick search I did, they supply a MIB called, umsevent.mib, which defines a few traps, and an addtrap script which will define them to NetView NT. So you should be able to modify the script to run on UNIX or run mib2trap against the MIB. They also ship an nvsniffer config file which will cause nvsniffer on NT to discover their WEBM-based servers. I don't think that will port too well to UNIX because nvsniffer there does not have the same capabilities, though this was improved for NetView 7.1 James Shanks Level 3 Support for Tivoli NetView for UNIX and NT Tivoli Software / IBM Software Group Eric Pobst <epobst00@yahoo.com> Sent by: owner-nv-l@tkg.com 10/24/2001 10:55 AM Please respond to IBM NetView Discussion To: IBM NetView Discussion <nv-l@tkg.com> cc: Subject: Re: [NV-L] IBM Director James, That is actually what I am trying to track down (Mibs/Trap definitions).

Looks pretty straight forward except we are currently not using NT NetView. There may be way to extract them from the IBM Director setup files, but would rather avoid this. My ideal setup would be to just run the UMS services on each of the IBM X-Series servers and have them forward traps to NetView (very similiar to Compaq Insight Manger). Trying to keep it simple.

James, That is actually what I am trying to track down (Mibs/Trap definitions). If at the very least the mibs to run mib2trap against. I cannot find the mibs anywhere and the only reference to them is running an upward integration from the IBM Director Application to NT NetView. Looks pretty straight forward except we are currently not using NT NetView. There may be way to extract them from the IBM Director setup files, but would rather avoid this.
