2231.0. "NetView to OpenView information feed via TRAPS" by CHEFS::rasmodem8.reo.dec.com::Harvey () Thu Apr 10 1997 17:14

A quick query....

A customer is undergoing a merger of departments and has both OpenView and 
NetView. Seems like OpenView is winning in terms of being "top dog" platform 
due to coverage etc.

Question is : can NetView continue to look after the Digital environment but 
keep the OpenView system in step by forwarding TRAPS etc. ?

I'm aware of the Client/Server capabilties in Netview/TME on UNIX and wonder 
if this works (even partially) with OpenView ?

A quick response is needed if possible.

Thanks

    The short answer (on forwarding traps) is YES.
    
    You might have to manually go into Netview's event customization--> trap
    definition (or whatever its called, I don't remember the proper menu
    strings) and add the forwarding for each individual trap you want to
    send.
    
    I don't think OpenView has a remote client GUI interface, unless
    they've added it recently.
