Following is one (1) example (from tecad_nv6k.cds) that we have been
using for several years.

BEFORE:

CLASS TEC_ITS_FATAL_ERROR
  SELECT
    1: ATTR(=,$ENTERPRISE) , VALUE(PREFIX, "1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3" ) ;
    2: $SPECIFIC = 58851330 ;
    3: ATTR(=, "nvObject" ) ;
    4: ATTR(=, "nvEventDescr" ) ;
    5: ATTR(=, "nvApplNbr" ) ;
  FETCH
    1: IPADDR($V3);
  MAP
    origin = $F1 ;
    hostname = $V3 ;
    msg = $V4 ;
    category = $V5 ;
    nvhostname = $ADAPTER_IP ; # Required for ALL TEC_ITS events
END


AFTER:

CLASS TEC_ITS_FATAL_ERROR
    SELECT
        1: ATTR(=,$ENTERPRISE), VALUE(PREFIX, "1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3" );
        2: $SPECIFIC = 58851330;
        3: ATTR(=, "nvObject" );
        4: ATTR(=, "nvEventDescr" );
        5: ATTR(=, "nvApplNbr" );
    FETCH
        1: IPADDR($V3);
    MAP
        category    = $V5;
        hostname    = $V3;
        msg         = $V4;
        nvhostname  = $ADAPTER_IP;
        origin      = $F1;
        severity    = CRITICAL;
END


What do you think?

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much
we think we know.  The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
