RE: [nv-l] vpxdTrap

Well, Drew, you'd probably have to get
a hexdump of the incoming trap in a trapd.trace, and post it here (or open
a problem send it to IBM Support), for me to be sure, but looking at the
output message, I'd say offhand that the agent is sending the trap like
this:
Enterprise 1.3.6.1.4.1
generic 6
specific 6876
which is why your definition isn't formatting
the trap.
trapd.conf already has definitions for
1.3.6.1.4.1 (called ENTERPRISES) but they only contain the generic
entries for coldStart, warmStart, and so on (0 - 5).
Vendors are supposed to add their vendor
number when they send unique traps. You could always try adding
an entry , say ENTERPRISE6 for generic 6 and specific 6876 and see whether
that formats correctly. This would get you out of your current problem,
but it exposes another.
If I'm right about this, then there
is a bug here, either in what vmware is sending, or in how trapd is reading
it. If you like, NetView support can help you determine which,
but you'll have to open that problem and send the trace.
