Thanks Francois,
Your suggestions worked and we were able to rectify the problem.
We are facing similar problem in Tivoli Netview 7.1.4 on Solaris.
The trap are not displayed on the alarm browser by our application (the
same as we used in 7.1.3 xrx_prnStatus). The entries in ovactiond log
are as follows:
04/21/06 06:12:41 AM ovactiond: Closing at the request of OVsPMD (via
ovstop).
04/21/06 06:12:49 AM Filtering all non alpha-numeric characters from
trap strings
with the exception of: -.
04/21/06 06:12:49 AM Commands issued will be sanitized by replacing all
others with underscores.
To view sanitized commands in this log, run ovactiond with either the
tracing or verbose flag.
04/21/06 06:12:52 AM ovactiond starting. Waiting up to 300 seconds for
command to complete.

04/21/06 07:10:13 AM Command /usr/OV/bin/nmdemandpoll 13.205.105.98
returned standard output data:

Arvind,
It seams to me that it is doing what it is supposed to do.
ovactiond.log shows that the nvsniffer command is executed when your
traps
are received. However it return an invalid status or an error message.
You
need to double check what /usr/OV/bin/xrx_prnStatus.exe is doing when
executed. Why does it return a value '9' ? also I guess it call the ps
command with some invalid parameters (-- f).
Try running the nvsniffer command manually to see if you get the same
errors. I don't know if you wrote that xrx_prnStatus.exe yourself but if
that's the case you should be able to debug it.

[nv-l] Tivoli Netview 7.1.3 AIX

Please respond to

I am developing a plugin on Tivoli Netview 7.1.3 for AIX and Solaris.
The
purpose of the plugin is to show all the traps messages received from
the
devices managed by the plugin in the Event Browser.
For this purpose I have made an application which should run when the
traps
are received.
Entries have been made in the trapd.conf for these traps. The command in
the ?event modify? window of the traps contains the entries as:
/usr/OV/bin/nvsniffer ?c /usr/OV/conf/xyz.conf -n $A ?t 1 ?T 30 ?m ?s
xyz.conf is the configuration file that contains the entry for my
application.
$A is the selection name of the device that sends a trap.
Now when I run this command from the console window, I am able to get
the
traps reflected in the event browser. But this command does not executes
automatically for a trap, when set in the ?modify event? for a trap in
the
?event configuration?.
The ovactiond.log contains some entries like:
03/28/06 05:57:28 AM Command /usr/OV/bin/nvsniffer -c
/usr/OV/conf/xrxsniffer.conf -n 13.205.105.98 -t 1 -T 30 -m -s returned
standard output data:
WARNING: launched task '/usr/OV/bin/xrx_prnStatus.exe' on node
'13.205.105.98' returned value (9) out of range; assuming FAILURE.
03/28/06 05:57:28 AM Command /usr/OV/bin/nvsniffer -c
