Ronnie,
James, So what does an in line action look like in the rule? I think on AIX I had all actions. I do not have access to an AIX box to create an object for in line action and then go look at what is in the rule.

You'll need to go to UNIX and use the editor to create a ruleset there that ends in an Inline action, because regular Actions don't exist on Windows. If you trace nvcord, you'll see an error message in the log that says they are supported if you try to use one. event stream (block) --> TrapSettings --> QuerySmartset --> In-line action The action would look something like this <netview drive>:\usr\ov\bin\nvmail.exe -server mysnmtp.mailserver.com -recipient jshanks@us.ibm -subject "test message" -message "This is just a test" but I'd put it in a bat file you keep in /usr/OV/bin and just call that, like this <netview drive>:\usr\ov\bin\my_mail.bat Once you get this working, you can try substituting trap variables into the thing, such as <netview drive>:\usr\ov\bin\my_mail.bat $NVA and in the bat file -message "Host %1 has gone down."

James, The short story is, I have a working rule with NetView on AIX 7.1.4. Basically the rule checks to see if object in event is a member of a Smartset and then sends out an e-mail. When I move the rule to Windows and have the Smartsets created just like AIX, nothing happens. I have tried to change the e-mail command in the rule to match what windows requires, but still nothing. If I manully run nvmail, I can get mail sent to someone. Just can not make it go from the rule. That's why I was looking for a sample rule that really works to see what syntax was making it work. Maybe I am missing a backslash or something.

Since there's no ruleset editor most folks have to create them on UNIX first and then modify them with Wordpad on Windows. The you have to start nvcord with that rule active. And since Windows does not have an actionsvr process, the ruleset would use an in-line action run by nvcord himself, something like this, TrapSettings ==> In-line action This would be suicide on UNIX because nvcorrd is right in the middle of the event flow in the UNIX architecture, but on Windows, he 's optional. He only sees the traps after they have been stored in the ODBC database. NetView for Windows provides the nvmail command so you can send mail to an SMTP server, or you can do it yourself with Perl. Either way you usually have to write a script of some sort and if your ruleset is not more complicated than what I showed above, then you might as well just run it as a hidden command by trapd. Are you having problems with nvmail?
