I've just loaded this and we will see how it goes, hopefully by tomorrow the VMWare admin can crank out a test trap.

 

Will post results--a big thanks to you Don!!

Drew,
Thinking about this a little more and re-looking at your trapd.log.... I don't think they were switched.
It sounds like they just really messed this definition up in the agent!!!
It actually looks like they appended the Specific Trap number to their OID for this trap and gave the trap a specific 6876.

These lines from your trapd.log indicate that the OID that was sent is "1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.201
And the Specific trap number is 6876.

1100537804 7 Mon Nov 15 10:56:44 2004 10.5.10.75 ? generic trap:6 specific trap:6876

I changed the Enterprise name to vmwareDrew so there would not be a conflict.
Copy/past this to the command line and run it.
Again, just delete this definition after VMware fixes their agent problem.

/usr/OV/bin/addtrap -l vpxdTrap -g 6 -s 6876 \
-n vmwareDrew -i 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.201 \
-o A -c "LOGONLY" -t 0 \
-S 1 \
-D "This trap is sent when entity status changed." \
-e vpxdTrap \
-F '$E $G $S $# args: $*'
