Re: [NV-L] set a value to a LIST_OF STRING in trapd.conf

For assistance using the PRINTF function
to add things to slot mappings in xnmtrap, here's an append from a while
back.
You might do some searching in there.

The printf business is tricky, but it works.  For example, the Node Up and
Node Down events have $3 which just says 'Node Up' or 'Node Down'.
Further, the $3 variable is mapped to the TEC slot 'msg'.  I wanted to add
the nodename to the msg variable. So, in xnmtrap, in the little side dialog
for 'TEC Slot mapping' I changed the one for 'msg' from '$V3' to

  PRINTF( "%s : %s", $V2, $V3 )

This works great, and the tec now gets, in the msg variable,
   Nodename: Node Up

In trapd.conf, it ends up looking like:

EVENT_CLASS OV_Node_Down
BEGIN_SLOT_MAPPING
msg PRINTF( "%s : %s", $V2, $V3 )
OV_status 1
END_SLOT_MAPPING

Unless you can figure out how to do it with PRINTF, probably
not.

Complex event enhancement is best done on the TEC server with TEC rules.

Subject	[NV-L] set a value to a LIST_OF STRING in trapd.conf

Hi List,

Using Netview 7.1.5 on AIX
Is it possible in trapd.conf to set a value to a slot defined in TEC as
a LIST_OF STRING ?
either adding a value to a list with an existing default value or setting
the whole list would be fine. I could not find any reference or example
of this.

Thanks
