2204.0. "question on notification requests" by NSCRUE::KEANE (U.S. NIS Service Engineering and Delivery) Mon Jan 27 1992 19:41

 Hi,

   I'm looking for some help with setting up notification requests. I can get
a request to function just specifying a domain, and have had some success with
using the "any notification event" on snmp *. What I'm trying to set up is one
request for snmp linkUp event and one request for snmp linkDown event. Whenever
I put anything in the events field other than "any notification event" I get an
error returned saying "no entities in this domain support the requested events".
I've had the same error trying to start a similar request using decnet events.
If I try to be specific on the entity list and specify an interface along with
an snmp host I get the error "unable to obtain entities and/or rules for 
notification".

Does any of this have to do with the partition that the snmp events were defined
in for the field test release?

VMS 5.4

Thanks,
Scott

2204.1	please get me the following information	TOOK::CALLANDER	MCC = My Constant Companion	`Tue Jan 28 1992 09:39`	18
	I am having some problems getting ucx running on my node so if you could help me here...could you please do the following for me: sho domain <name> member * all char and then for each of those that says it is an snmp node could you please do a sho snmp <ns:.name> all ident I can't see anything that would cause this problem, but if you could get me this info that might help a bit. I will see what I can do about testing it here as well. jill

2204.3	my bug!	TOOK::CALLANDER	MCC = My Constant Companion	`Wed Jan 29 1992 17:06`	10
	oops, I should have put a note here...I got my snmp stuff working (switched to an ultrix system) and found the problem. It is definitely a problem in the notification FM (there are multiple events that start with the string linkup) and I am not correctly handling distinguishing between them. More info when I have a fix. jill
2204.4	success with decnet	NSCRUE::KEANE	U.S. NIS Service Engineering and Delivery	`Wed Jan 29 1992 19:09`	11
	Jill, Thanks for the info. I'll keep my eye open for the fix. I've had some success getting specific decnet notifications set up. Any chance in this version that we will be able to call a notification command procedure after and alarm or event has cleared the filtering process? Thanks, Scott
2204.5	if severity == cleared?	TOOK::CALLANDER	MCC = My Constant Companion	`Tue Feb 04 1992 16:34`	9
	well.....you might be able to set up your action procedure on the alarm event to look at the severity of the alarm (it should be in the output data you are passed), and then make it take a seperate process flow if the severity is cleared. As to events from AM sources it doesn't look like that will be possible. jill
