Hi,

A question when integrating  Netview 7.14 with TEC 3.9

Reason for my question is that we want to use short nodename i Netview and a longer nodename i TEC.
So we have added an extra field at each object i netview, called tec_nodename where the long name is kept.

Now I want to transfer the content of field "tec_nodename"  in slot map "nv_var15"  to TEC

So the big question is what syntax should I use in trapd.conf ???

I have tried
        nv_var15 tec_nodename
but the result is that nv_var15 contains the fixed text  "tec_nodename"

Any suggestions ........

Example from my trapd.conf :
***********************************************************************************
IBM_NVNDWN_EV {1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3} 6 58916865 N 4 0 "Status Events"
$3
EVENT_CLASS TEC_ITS_NODE_STATUS
BEGIN_SLOT_MAPPING
 nvhostname $NV_IPADDR
 nv_var15 tec_nodename
 msg $V3
 nodestatus DOWN
 iflist $V8
END_SLOT_MAPPING
SDESC
This event is generated by IBM Tivoli NetView when
it detects a node is down

The data passed with the event are:
    1) ID of application sending the event
    2) Name or IP address
    3) Formatted description of the event
    4) Timestamp of the event and objid of the node object
    5) Database name
    6) Selection Name
    7) (not used)
    8) Interface list
