Of course you can! LOGONLY is just the default. You can change anything
you like about the way those traps are formatted.
mib2trap is just a convenience routine. The only things it took from the
MIB were the enterprise name and OID and the specific trap number and its
label. Everything else is up to you. mib2trap provides the simplest, most
innocuous defaults and you can change those anyway you like.

James,
Thank you very much, adding a space solved the problem! Now i have all the
traps listed in trapd.conf. There is just one problem that all the traps
are added as "LOG ONLY" this will not show the event when the trap comes
can i change that to "Error Events" so that the appear in the Event console
as well!

Edit the MIB and insert a space between "::=" and "1". Then try again.
The code parses on spaces, and it doesn't recognize "::=1" as being the
same as "::= 1"

Hi James,
I tired that(mib2trap) but its giving me the following error:
C:\HP Printer MIBs>mib2trap trapmib.mib hptrap.bat
Errors - no script generated.
Error defining TRAP-TYPE: Expected '::=', found (::=1): On or around line
44
here's what is on from line 40-44:
periphStatusChange TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE net-printer
DESCRIPTION
"The status of the peripheral has changed"

I can send the entire mib file containing all trap definitions for your
reference as well if you say so!

nv-l@lists.us.ibm.com Traps error
Loading the MIB will not help. NetView is different from OpenView in this
regard and I cannot emphasize this often enough.
The "no format message" from trapd means that there is no definition for
this trap in trapd.conf.
To add a definition, you either manually configure it with Trap Settings,
using the detailed information in trapd.log or you use the addtrap command.
If you have a MIB which describes those traps, then you can use mib2trap on
the MIB file to create an addtrap script.
But merely loading the MIB will not help.

Okay I'm sorry the reason you are getting the "unknown format msg is you
do not have the correct mib loaded for the device that is sending the
trap.
Can you identify the model of the printer that is sending the
traps?www.mibdepot.com is a good resource for mibs
I don't process anything from printers so I may not be any further help.
with configs-
Use >Options>Load/Unload SNMP Mibs drop down from the Netview GUI to
add(load) new mibs,. ( Handy to know the location of the file before hand
though)
But if you don't want to see that msg, use >Options> Event Configuration:
Trap customization and set it to not log and not display. Do not forward
etc etc.

Re: [nv-l] HP Printer Traps error
Micheal,
Thats great i would use that to compile a rule for it for TEC, but what
should i do with Netview events.... will that fix the problem in NV as
well? Do i need to edit the trapd.conf file??

Re: [nv-l] HP Printer Traps error
You need to run the addtrap command with suitable parameters.
The infomation comes either from running mib2trap on the HP MIB and
capturing the output
in a script file. You can ignore errors from the rest of the mib as long
as something appears in the script file.
Or manually from looking in trapd.log.
In particular you need the 'Enterprise' number and the 'Specific' trap
number.
I seem to remember running mib2trap on a Unix version of Netview,
and taking the script across to the windows version, renaming it as a
'.bat'
It should also be possible to do the same through the graphical interface.
