Eric,
To send a trap from your script you can use the snmptrap command.
snmptrap <destination> <oid> <host> <generic#> <specific#> 0 [0 <variable
type> <value>]
see the man page for more detail.
Example
/usr/OV/bin/snmptrap -p 166 localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.9999 ${thehost} 6 5 0 0
OctetString $appl 0 OctetString ${thehost} 0 OctetString "${result}"

Francois,
Your suggestion to place the dot before the oid worked. Now I must learn
to create the script and have it generate a trap. Any pointers? Much
thanks!
James Shanks,
I loaded LOAD-BAL-SYSTEM-MIB and was able to browse the mib with no
problem. Thank you

Eric,
Try to use your netview snmpget with a dot in front of your oid.
snmpget -c community string ip address .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.1.1.61.0
if it still doesn't work, use the oid that you see exist in the output of
snmpwalk.
I would continue to use a script that I would run every 10 minutes (for
example) in a crontab. The script would do the snmpget to each device and
compare the result. It can then generate a trap and netview can take action
on that trap (execute a script or forward to tec for example)

Sorry if this is a repeat, but nv-l went whacky for a while and I was not
receiving anything and I don't know if anyone received this email
previously.
Patform: Netview 7.1.4 FP3 AIX 5.2
Goal: To provide an alert in Netview when both of our F5 Load Balancers
are in "active" state at the same time.
When OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.1.1.61.0 = 2 (this defines "active")
Background:
This was previously accomplished using a shell script on an AIX box running
Tivoli with Tivoli's wsnmpget command:
wsnmpget -h ip address -c community string 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.1.1.61.0 This
command returns: 2 (meaning active)
The equivalent command using snmpget on my Netview box is:
snmpget -c community string ip address 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.1.1.61.0 This
command returns: snmpget: This variable does not exist:
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysUpTime.6
.1.4.1.3375.1.1.61.0.
If I could get snmpget to work, the next question would be, How do I use
this in Netview?
snmpwalk works: A search of the output reveals that the above OID is not
found. That is, the OID is found but without the ending 61.0
How do I accomplish my goal? Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is there a
utility like rulesets or smartsets that can accomplish my goal?
Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide.
