Re: environment variables set by the Action node

NetView 5.1 allows you to query the event severity in the Event Attribute
node, but this is not externalized.  The only externalized variables are
those listed in the Admin Guide, $NVA, $NVC, $NVATTR_n and so on.    These
are just the parts of the trap as it is sent, not as modified by trapd --
he adds the severity,  category, and source  to the event according to what
is in trapd.conf.    This was probably an oversight on someone's part but
if you want to see it added to the product, I'd suggest you send a note to
netview AT tivoli DOT com.

I think that's about the ONLY one you can't get.

Would love to find out how if anyone knows.

 Subject: enviornment variables set by the Action node







Is there a list of the environment variable set by the action node.  I
am
particularly interested in accessing the severity the of an event from a

script that is executed by an action node.
