Thanks for your help James,
The only thing I could find was a file called /usr/OV/service/version I do
not have any subdirectories in /usr/OV/service.
The contents of the version file is a s follows.
# DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE!
# It identifies the installed version of the product.
#
ProductName: "IBM Tivoli NetView"
OperatingSystem: "AIX"
Version.Release: "7.1.3"
Maintenance.Release: "7.1.3.0"
FixLevel: "NVS7130"
KanjiFixLevel: "None"
ClientFixLevel: "NVC7130"
I created the /usr/OV/bin/netnmrc.pre file and it did not change anything
so I assume that I need to upgrade.

/usr/OV/service/
Should have a subdirectory V713 on 7.1.3 systems, or V714 on 7.1.4
systems, if you have applied any maintenance. In that subdirectory will be
a fix.list, a fix.log, and a separate subdirectory for each fix you
applied, whether individual, such as IY53703, or group, such as FixPack4.
When the patch is applied, the old code is stored here in these
subdirectories in case you want to back out the fix.
At some point we started updating the /usr/OV/service/version file so that
it says 7.1.3.x or 7.1.4.x where "x" is the FixPack level, but I don't
recall at what point that was.

7.1.4?
The source of the problem is how Cisco sends that variable, as an octet
string, which by definition in SNMP, is printable ASCII. So trapd tries to
make the best sense of it he can. He will dump the whole string to hex but
only if at least half of it is unprintable, and in this case it is not.
Code was introduced in IY53703 for both 7.1.3 and 7.1.4 to handle this
situation, by forcing trapd to print hex when any part of the string is
unprintable, but you have to export an environment variable to use it. My
guess is that this is configured for the 7.1.4 machine but not the 7.1.3.
IY53703 is part of FixPack4 for 7.1.3, so if you have that level, then you
can do the following.
1. Edit /usr/OV/bin/netnmrc.pre (or create one if necessary) and put this
line in it:
export TRAPD_STRICT_HEX_FORMAT=TRUE
2. ovstop nvsecd
3. /etc/netnmrc (on AIX) or /etc/init.d/netnmrc (on Solaris or Linux)
This will force ovspmd to set the environment variables and trapd will
inherit it.
