OK, Ray, open a problem to Support.
 I don't see that there is anything else to be done.
Someone will have to look at your issue
in detail.
As I said, I've not seen this, but then
the only way I use nvaddtrapd.conf is with a input file which has just
the changes in it I want to be added to the existing and nothing else.

I don't  quite know what to make
of your description.

James,
The end result has a lot of the
traps, but not all of the traps, from the current trapd.conf file and a
lot of the traps, but not all of the traps from the trapd.conf file from
the other host...

Never seen that, but then again I usually know exactly what entries are
in the import file I want to import and none of them duplicate what is
in the original. 

Note however that nvaddtrapdconf WILL NOT overlay an entry you already
have.  It will only add new ones. 
Could that be the problem?

Has anyone noticed that when you use "nvaddtrapdconf" to merge
the trap definitions from one Netview server to another, that the result
does not appear to have all the entries from either trapd.conf file?

It looks more like a mix and match smorgasbord.

Environment:
                Aix 5.2 ML2
