Re: [nv-l] How can I embed the smartset name in the message forwarded to




The event will go to the TEC untouched. The Netview ruleset processing is
only involved in the decision-making. If you want to add information, you
must send your own event instead of the triggering event. Your ruleset can
call an action to do one of two things:
1) issue an snmptrap to send a custom trap you defined with extra fields
which you map to tec slots, or
2) issue a wpostemsg to send a tec event with whatever data you like.

The TEC, on the other hand, can have fact files where it can identify the
proper handling based on existing fields, using the same criteria as your
Smartsets, if such decisions can be made based on node name or address.

Which approach you take depends on 1) where your skills are strongest and
2) how helpful your naming convention is.

We are running netview 7.1.3 on AIX.

We want to create smartsets along the lines of business/application.  We
need to somehow pass this bit of information (which smartset / application
is affected) in the message that is forwarded to the TEC so that when TEC
receives the message it will know which "line of business" is affected.

Is there a pragmatic solution to accomplish this?
