Jane -

This isn't new.  This is how the TEC severities have been mapped since the 
first internal TEC adapter in NetView 5.0.
Where is it documented?  I don't know.  That's a question I hate, because 
doc is done by doc writers, who have their own set of IBM standards to 
adhere to  on how doc should be written, and so just like you, I have to 
search for the answer.  So I am going to decline. 

If it were going to change at this late date, however, we'd have to doc 
that in the Release Notes for migration.

        Subject:        [nv-l] NetView to TEC slot mappings - severity



The addtrap documentation says that, regardless of the NetView variable 
to TEC slot mappings you specify, the  source, sub_source, origin and 
hostname slots are reserved and automatically included in the  TEC event.

I have NV 7.1.3 FP 1 on AIX, with TEC 3.8.  I am finding that the 
NetView severity value is also mapped automatically to the TEC severity 
slot, with the following severity mappings:
NetView         TEC
Cleared            HARMLESS
Indeterminate   UNKNOWN
Warning            WARNING
Minor               MINOR
Critical              CRITICAL
Major               FATAL

Anyone know whether this is accidental and may disappear, or design and 
not documented (or documented elsewhere)?
Thanks,
Jane
