nvpagerd is able to do alphanumeric paging using TAP and it seams to me
that on the phone it 's exactly the same as an sms message. It probably
depend on your phone provider.

The pieces of the event will be made available to your script as
environment variables.  These are documented in the NetView Admin Guide.
You have many to choose from: $NVA is the agent address, $NVC is the
community string, $NVT is the timestamp from the trap, $NVE is the
enterprise id, $NVG is the generic event id,  and $NVS, the specific id.
The event variables are given as $NVATTR_1, $NVATTR_2, $NVATTR_3, and so
on.  As the Release Notes will tell you, there are also $NVATTR_COUNT, to
tell you how many variables are present, and $NVSEV for the event severity,
$NVSRC for the source is, and $NVCAT for the event category , as defined in
trapd.conf.

How you send the message you create to an SMS device is another matter.  I
think you can find a UNIX utility for that on the web, but NetView itself
does not provide one.  He has only the much older pager protocol, TAP,
which is used by the pager daemon, nvpagerd.

Hi,

I written a rule to action whenever the down event recived it hold for 10
minutes. If Up
event is recived within 10 mins then both events will dropped. If UP event
is not
recviced, then down event will trigger the

Action node to the action. I need to understand that , how to capture the
events to write
the scripts to a send alert on SMS.

Please advice

Regards
N.Raaman
