Hi Bernard,
Thanks for this. The hostname would contain dashes - our DNS is skills-1st. What variable did you use to populate the hostname to TEC???

Thanks,
Jane

Jane,

Does the hostname contains dashes/hyphens ?
Then this might be related to a problem I had: if the hostname contain
dashes the hostname field was not populated for traps forwarded to TEC.

This was for traps received from the network, NetView events were sent
correctly.

It was solved with testfix IY52429 (which needed IY51641 as prereq).

HTH,

Bernard

NetView 7.1.4 for Unix.
I want  be able to populate the hostname TEC slot for any generic TRAP

that NetView is configured to forward to TEC. Default events in TEC_ITS.rs seem to get hostname populated automatically. If I wsa configuring a NetView TRAP for automatic action, I'd use $A for the machine that sent the TRAP. Is there an equivalent environment variable to use for slot mapping. I've tried $HOSTNAME and $A to no avail.

Cheers,
Jane
