Scott,

Never worked with addtrap... I'm guessing here... Do you need to escape the
newline sequence on the following line?:

Change this:
-F '$E $G $S $# args: $*'
-C "/usr/bin/logger -plocal1.info Tape Library Event:

To this:
-F '$E $G $S $# args: $*' \
-C "/usr/bin/logger -plocal1.info Tape Library Event:




                                                                                
                                                        
                      "Bursik, Scott

I thought the -C looked like the right one myself but here is what happens
when I try and load with -C option.

Here is the portion of the addtrap script:

/usr/OV/bin/addtrap -l ibm3584Trap001 -g 6 -s 1 \
   -n ibm3584MIBTraps -i 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.182.1.0 \
   -o A  -c "LOGONLY" -t 0 \
   -S 1  \
   -D "Trap for library tape alert 001.
Flag: Library hardware A
Type: C
Cause: The changer mechanism is having trouble communicating with the
internal drive.
Required host message:
The library mechanism is having difficulty communicating with the drive:
1. Turn the library off then on.
2. Restart the operation.
3. If the problem persists, call the library supplier helpline."  \
   -e ibm3584Trap001  \
   -F '$E $G $S $# args: $*'
   -C "/usr/bin/logger -plocal1.info Tape Library Event:
From:$A,$1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7"

And here is the output:

[pbsxst00007][/usr/OV/tmp]>3584.addtrap.sh
Trap ibm3584Trap001 has been added.
3584.addtrap.sh[17]: -C:  not found.
