Re: [nv-l] MLM events in TEC - state correlation

[wolfgang.bergbauer@attglobal.net]

Hi James,

I had a parsing error in state correlation
engine, I think it was a problem with the formatting of the trap when using
snmptrap. Trapd processed the event without issues, but the state correlation
engine did not, so it never made it to TEC.
Now one question in regards to the State
Correlation. I spend almost the whole day getting a simple reset on match
rule to work, without success.
Does anybody know if the function defined
within the default rules, just stop further rule processing for TEC_ITS_NODE_STATUS
events.
The idea I had was to use the state
correlation for delaying Node Status and Router status events for 5 minutes.
In the past we used the Ruleset editor, which I really hate because we
have quite a big ruleset and it is a nightmare to maintain this rule. (You
have to docment seperately what is under the icons).

Thanks for your information and kind
regards,

        Wolfgang

All events sent by nvserverd go as TEC_ITS_BASE unless you define another
default event class in tecint.conf or specifically define an event class
in trapd.conf.  TEC_ITSBASE replaces the old Nvseverd_Event class
as the default class.  By the way, the only way you would see events
you don't expect over in TEC is if you were using some ruleset other than
TEC_ITS.rs or if you modified it.   

trapd.conf entries ignored?  You'd have to prove that to me.  Having
worked on this code for 7 years, I'm willing to bet that's not true.
So what are you expecting that you don't see?

Subject	[nv-l] MLM events in TEC

Hi all, 

After migrating Netview 6.0.3 to Netview 7.1.4 FP01 we see problems with
our MLM events. 
All the MLM events are coming into TEC as TEC_ITS_BASE, with some variables
that identify it as MLM/Threshold events, with a generic and specific trapd
ID 

Now 2 issues here: 

1. When I look into trapd.conf, there is no TEC Event defined for MLM/Threshold
events. How can it go to TEC then as TEC_ITS_BASE.
2. For all our  MLM ARM/ReARM events I have specific entries in the
trapd.conf with OID of Tivoli/MLM_Threshold {1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.12.5.1} and
a unique specific trap ID. 
This definition seems to be completely ignored. 

Thanks for your help. 

Kind regards, 

       Wolfgang
