Hi James,
 
Thanks for the info.  I don't think I was clear in what I need exactly. 
 
1. Is there a variable that exists that contains the whole message
string as it appears in trapd.log. I know the $3 and $5  are accessible
individually 
    via  varbinds. I wanted to pass this whole string exactly in one
variable. 
 
"The enclosure enclosure460 fan in rack USE063471P has been"
 
 
2. I know that I can modify the automated action to pass the string
above directly to a script. This will not work for me because my rules
    require this sequence  "Event stream--> Smartset query --> Trap
match--> Inline action script"
 
    Is there a way to encode the string in a variable and pass it along
with the varbinds which I can then use in my inline action script.
    I've seen a previous post of a perl script that interrogates
trapd.conf to get the string, but I was hoping I didn't have to go that
route.

        You reference those as $NVATTR_3 and $NVATTR_5 in the script and
execute the script in a Action node. When the Action node fires it will
create a new shell with root authority and export all the trap variables
in this way. This is covered in the Chapter on Event Customization in
the NetView Admin Guide. Look there for more details.

        Thanks Francois,
        
        If I execute a script via a ruleset how does the script get the
vars $3 $5?

                        You can configure an automatic action for that
trap with the parameters you need ($3 and $5) in xnmtrap. You can also
execute a script in a ruleset.

[NV-L] Trap description not in a varbind        
                        
                        
                        How do I get the trap description string as
shown in the trap.log sent to a script? 

                        I am working with an HP c-class device using
compaq mib .1.3.6.1.4.1.232 on Netview 7.1.4 

                        The trapd.log shows: 

                        1181068515 3 Tue Jun 05 14:35:15 2007 bl460 
                        A The enclosure enclosure460 fan in rack
USE063471P has been removed. 

                        The varbinds look like this:
