Could anyone give an example of how I can set an varbind variable from an external script ? Maybe call an Inline command from a ruleset ? When forwarding a internal trap like 58916867 (interface down) it only contains 5 varbinds, say you want to add another information to that trap. Regards! Per Lütkemeyer DMdata a/s
If I understand what you said, you added a field to the object in the NetView database. Well, there is no mechanism provided in trapd to extract that field. He has no way of knowing about it. What you can do in trapd.conf is manipulate the varbinds that are sent with the trap itself, but you cannot add anything new except fixed text, or combinations of existing varbinds using the PRINTF syntax. Either you will have to provide one an extraction mechanism yourself and make it part of your TEC ruleset, or you will have to find what you want in the trap varbinds.

Hi, A question when integrating Netview 7.14 with TEC 3.9 Reason for my question is that we want to use short nodename i Netview and a longer nodename i TEC. So we have added an extra field at each object i netview, called tec_nodename where the long name is kept. Now I want to transfer the content of field "tec_nodename" in slot map "nv_var15" to TEC So the big question is what syntax should I use in trapd.conf ??? I have tried nv_var15 tec_nodename but the result is that nv_var15 contains the fixed text "tec_nodename" Any suggestions ........ Regards Per Lütkemeyer DMdata a/s Example from my trapd.conf : *********************************************************************************** IBM_NVNDWN_EV {1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3} 6 58916865 N 4 0 "Status Events" $3 EVENT_CLASS TEC_ITS_NODE_STATUS BEGIN_SLOT_MAPPING nvhostname $NV_IPADDR nv_var15 tec_nodename msg $V3 nodestatus DOWN iflist $V8 END_SLOT_MAPPING SDESC This event is generated by IBM Tivoli NetView when it detects a node is down The data passed with the event are: 1) ID of application sending the event 2) Name or IP address 3) Formatted description of the event 4) Timestamp of the event and objid of the node object 5) Database name 6) Selection Name 7) (not used) 8) Interface list EDESC ******************************************************************************* |
