All of this can be done
with a smartset. If you use Cisco as an example, the basic breakdown of their
devices is:
routers = 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1
switches =
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5
Because of acquisitions, there are other OIDs that belong to them, but you can
expand this example to include whatever you want
Question 1 - Make
a smartset who's membership rule is sysObjectId = <your desired
targets OID>
Question 2 - Make a
ruleset that blocks all events except those coming from members of your
smartset in #1. Then when you open your event window, create a dynamic
workspace that uses this ruleset. Or use this ruleset as the default for
the event window itself. Jane's last message told you how to save those
for your customer.
Question 3 - The
sysObjectId and the EnterpriseId are related but different. If you look
at my Cisco example, the OID that stops at 4.1.9 is the Enterprise Id, and as
you can see, they add subsets to it by adding additional numbers, 4.1.9.1 for
routers, 4.1.9.5 for switches. Then they add additional numbers to each
of these to identify specific router and switch types. For examples look
in /usr/OV/conf/C/oid_to_sym file
Here are some
examples. These are sysObjectIds.
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.122:Cisco
Router:cisco-Rtr3620Family
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.123:Cisco Router:CPA3600 # cpa3620
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.124:Cisco Router:CPA3600 # cpa3640
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.125:Cisco Router:cisco-C7200
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.126:Cisco Router:cisco-Rtr700Family
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.127:Cisco Router:cisco-Rtr700Family
1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.128:Cisco Router:cisco-Rtr700Family
Question 4 - Just make
your smartset stop at the Enterprise id. If a vendor uses more then 1
Enterprise id, just include all of them in the qualifying rule for the
smartset. Again in the case of Cisco, you would just say
"anything
whose sysObjectId included 1.3.6.1.4.1.9 AND <Any Other sysObjectId They
Own>"
Hope
this helps, Good luck!

Subject: Re: [nv-l] Events
Workspace in NV 7.1.3
I am having a problem about the event matching
configuration.
1- I want to create a workspace for a specific device
type with sysObjectID = 1.3.6.1.4.1.xx.yy.zz for example
2- I want All events (Treshold, Node UP, Node Down,
etc ..) and All Traps from that Device type to be displayed on that Workspace
3- What Attributes represents the sysObjectID?
is it the EntrepriseID?
4- What about when you want to display events
from all Devices from the same vendor, can youu use "Greater or equal
to" selection?
6- any *.rs file sample would help.
Thank You,
Meyos
