If I am not mistaken, its the baroc file that determines what values
can and cannot be set. I haven't looked at the newer baroc or ruleset,
but I would assume it has something to do with the new correlation.

I realised that I tried to put a value in the "sub_source" slot and it
didn't like it ... in the log below, the sub_source slot is duplicated. I
created a new slot for the value and it now works ... but why can we not
use the sub_source slot ?

Francois Le Hir/Quebec/IBM@IB MCA To Sent by: nv-l AT lists.us.ibm DOT com owner-nv-l@lists. cc us.ibm.com Subject [nv-l] forwarding custom events to 05/31/2004 11:53 tec AM Please respond to nv-l

Greetings,

using Netview 7.1.4 fp1 on AIX 5.1

I am trying to forward custom events to tec. All the standard netview
events are already correctly being received by tec.
I enabled tracing in nvcorrd and I see that the event is correctly being
forwarded.
I enabled tracing in tecint.conf and I get the following message in the log
file:

2004.05.31 15:42:01.116 com.tivoli.tec.event_delivery.TECEvent convert
  Dropping an event because it is ill-formed:
TEC_ITS_Restart;source=nvserverd;sub_source=A;origin=10.43.250.13;adapter_host=acmcyul00104.aircanada.ca;hostname=acmcyul00104.aircanada.ca;category=1;date="05/31/04

 15:42:01";status=OPEN;nvhostname=10.43.250.13;msg="This is a test12 event
from flh";keyword="ColdStart";sub_source="ciscolog";END

Why would nvserverd decide that this event is ill-formed ?

Thanks,
