The printf business is tricky, but it works.  For example, the Node Up and
Node Down events have $3 which just says 'Node Up' or 'Node Down'.
Further, the $3 variable is mapped to the TEC slot 'msg'.  I wanted to add
the nodename to the msg variable. So, in xnmtrap, in the little side dialog
for 'TEC Slot mapping' I changed the one for 'msg' from '$V3' to

   PRINTF( "%s : %s", $V2, $V3 )

This works great, and the tec now gets, in the msg variable,
    Nodename: Node Up

In trapd.conf, it ends up looking like:

EVENT_CLASS OV_Node_Down
BEGIN_SLOT_MAPPING
 msg PRINTF( "%s : %s", $V2, $V3 )
 OV_status 1
END_SLOT_MAPPING

Cordially,

Can you post what file/ place you're configuring these?   More details
are needed to focus and answer.
