Re: [nv-l] send different events to tec

We are still talking about NetView for
Windows, right?
You should say so when you append so
that everyone knows. Don't count on us to remember.
There are multiple configuration files
that you have to edit before you can use the NetView for Windows TEC Configurator
(tecconfig.bat) to send events to TEC which are not already defined.
I suggest that you obtain the TEC Event
Adapters Guide and read it, with special attention to the OpenView adapter.
The NetView for Windows TEC adapter
is based on an earlier version of that. The one thing that is really
different is that the NetView version also provides for optional filtering
by smartset membership. But you still have to define all the events
you will send first.
The TEC manual will explain the roles
of the various files called conf, cds, oid, and err.
In \usr\ov\conf on your NetView for
Windows box, you will see all these files with the prefix tecad_nv6k.
You have to edit them with Notepad BEFORE
you can use the java tecconfig.bat to select which ones you want to send
to TEC. All the java configurator does is edit the conf file. The
actual events must first be defined in the oid and cds files. The
oid file tells the TEC adapter what events to watch for; the cds, explains
in detail how to format them when he finds them.
You can, of course, also run wpostemsg/postemsg
as an action from Trap Settings if that is what you prefer, but then
you lose centralized control of things somewhat. It's your
choice.

hello list
I need to send some events to TEC and these events are not selectable in
"Configure TEC adapter" GUI. what method do you recommend? I'm
thinking to
to run wpostemsg as action in trapdconfig but maybe is something else
around..
thanks
