OVTRAP(1)							     OVTRAP(1)

NAME
       ovtrap - Script which will issue an SNMP trap to a node

SYNOPSIS
       ovtrap [-s severity] host alarm_message

DESCRIPTION
       ovtrap Generates a SNMP V1 trap to the  Event Browser.  This capability
       may be used through a local action within the alarm  syntax,  but  nor‐
       mally  if  you  would  like  all	 alarms to automatically generate SNMP
       traps, you would use the appropriate option to agsysdb.	 See  man-page
       agsysdb(1).

       If  you	are  not  using the automatic trap option, you may call ovtrap
       directly from your alarmdef syntax via  an  EXEC	 statement.   In  this
       case,  you must supply the options.  Host is either an Internet address
       or a host name. The alarm_message must be no more than 128  characters.
       And  the	 optional  -s  parameter  can be one of the following: Normal,
       Minor, Warning, Major, or Critical.

EXAMPLE
       ovtrap -s Warning monitoring_system "This is the message"
