Re: [NV-L] Hostname Missing

[Larry Fagan <larrytechie@yahoo.com>]

James,
After scrambling through the CDS file, i deleted few entries and finally got it to work and now tecad_nv6k process is running. Now question is, when i run tecconfig.bat, i don't see those new classes showing up in the list to select to forward to TEC. How are classes populated when we execute tecconfigbat. Am i missing something? Also should the entries in OID and CDS must match? I hope there is no issue since i deleted some entries in CDS file but they may exist in OID file.
Thanks,
Larry

Well, Larry, you are learning about the dangers of working with the
tecad_nv6k adapter.  There are parse errors in the CDS file you built and
you are going to have to find them and correct them before it will start.
I hope you have a backup.  If not, create one now, remove all your changes,
then rename the files so that the backup becomes your tecad_nv6k.cds.  Then
start looking for syntax errors in that original file.
When you think you've found the problem then you can switch the files back.

You can also get the adapter to help you find them perhaps by editing the
tecad_nv6k.err file and having the parser send more messages to the log,
like this
#
# MODULE = PARSER
#
PARSER  MINOR    /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log
PARSER  MAJOR    /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log
PARSER  FATAL    /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log
PARSER  LOW      /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log
PARSER  NORMAL  /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log
PARSER  VERBOSE  /usr/ov/log/nvtecad.log

You could even send them to a different file
#
# MODULE = PARSER
#
PARSER  MINOR    /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log
PARSER  MAJOR    /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log
PARSER  FATAL    /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log
PARSER  LOW      /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log
PARSER  NORMAL  /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log
PARSER  VERBOSE  /usr/ov/log/tecad.parser.log


Those line numbers may or may not match where the real problem is. But they
might be close.  I'd be looking to make sure that all my SELECT and MAP
statements ended in a semi-colon.

James,
Thanks for MIBS. Appreciate it...
I did exactly as you told me to do initially.
used Mib2trap for CPQHLTH.mib .. This created CDS, OID and BAROC files.
So added all the OID's in tecad_oid file. And i added CDS file content into
tecad_nv6k file.
Now my tecad_nv6k service does NOT start up.. It says state "NOT RUNNING".
When i check the nvtecad.log trace file I get bunch of errors as below:

Wed Jul 02 21:15:12 2008  MAJOR: PARSER , err 00,          parse.y line
1595: Parser \usr\ov\conf/tecad_nv6k.cds:syntax error on line 2807 current

1595: Parser \usr\ov\conf/tecad_nv6k.cds:syntax error on line 4049 current
keyword ""

Wed Jul 02 21:15:12 2008  MAJOR: PARSER , err 01, .\parse_config.c line
0859: Kernel config file <(null)> could not be parsed
Wed Jul 02 21:15:12 2008  FATAL: DRVSPEC, err 01,      driver_ov.c line
2047: Can not initialize kernel

Any idea what it is?

Many Thanks,
Larry

Larry,

You would be better off search the web for the MIB and using mib2trap.  The
manual method is much more prone to error.

You don't know any of the OIDs -- the actual varbinds sent in the trap.
That's why I suggested you  change the definition to $*  or just add it to
the existing definition so that they will print out in trapd.log.  Not
having any OIDs means that you cannot map them to shorthand labels in the
OID file to be used in the CDS.  So you have to select the variables in the
CDS blind, by number not by name.  I think this will work.

CLASS  cpqHe3FltTolPowerRedundancyLost
  SELECT
      1: ATTR(=,$ENTERPRISE), VALUE(PREFIX, "1.3.6.1.4.1.232.2");
      2: $SPECIFIC = 6032;
      3: ATTR(=,"VB_3") ;
  MAP
      msg = PRINTF ("The Power Supplies are no longer redundant on Chassis
%s,  $V3);
END,

James,
Thank You so much for excellent explanation. I'm trying to minimize pain by
adding manually in .cds & oid files rather than re inventing the wheel .
Now Please walk me through with one example...
I have a Compaq Trap definition ---OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.232  Specific # is
6032 and generic # 6
Trap description "The Power Supplies are no longer redundant on Chassis
$3."
Trap name "cpqHe3FltTolPowerRedundancyLost"
Severity "Warning"

How Do i define these in .CDS & OID file?
Thanks,
Larry
