Hello Bernard,

thank you for your answer to my problem. You are right, the FieldID is
really "IP Hostname". But when I try your suggestion under point 2) I get
the error-message
FieldID "IP Hostname Not Found. So, point 2) doesn't work.
Your suggestion under point 3) doesn't work too, with or without quotation
marks.
Can you talk me exactly how you solved the problem, please?

With best regards 
Gerd Brunschede

Hi Gerd,

I tried your command (NV 5.1.1, AIX 4.2.1). Conclusions:
1. There is no hyphen between IP and hostname. (But then the not found
FielID is "IP-Hostname").
2. "IP Hostname,SNMP sysLocation,SNMP sysContact" works fine.
3. I managed to reproduce your problem by adding a blank behind the
second comma...

Cordially
