You could write a simple script that emails the parameters passed from the
event and associate that script as an action against an event in "Event
Configuration". This is just a simple example, you could tailor your script
to do an infinite amount of other things as needed by your CSCI.
Note: I have never done this before, I just wrote it for this reply.

No, it's not a new command. I screwed up. nvmail is an NT-only
executable.
On UNIX you would use the mail command which comes with the operating
system, as for example
echo "$2 is $3" | mail -s "test node message" jshanks@us.ibm.com
If you like, you can write a simple script and alias this as "nvmail"
(which is how I got confused). Sorry.

have this command.

It would help if you would include the platform you are using. UNIX? NT?
Basically you pass parameters to nvmail from trapd using the "$n" syntax,
the same way you do for any command for the platform you are on. The
on-line help in "Trap Settings" (NT) and in "xnmtrap" (UNIX) explains this
kind of thing in some detail if you will take the time to read it.
On NT you will want to run the command as a "Hidden Command" and use a
syntax like this ( I had this attached to "Node Up"):
C:\usr\ov\bin\nvmail -server ferrari.raleigh.tivoli.com -recipient
jshanks@us.ibm.com -subject "test node up" -message " $1 $2 $3 $4 $5"
On UNIX it would be very similar:
/usr/OV/bin/nvmail -server ferrari.raleigh.tivoli.com -recipient
jshanks@us.ibm.com -subject "test node up" -message " $1 $2 $3 $4 $5"

Hi All,
Has anyone used the nvmail to send mail when an event occurs.This command
works fine but then can anyone tell me how do I pass relevant parameters
for the event so that the mail message makes sense and helps identify the
node/event from where the event is generated.
An urgent help is needed.
Regards
Vikas Gupta
