syntax errors in osspi_alarmdef file

Hi,
I just ran discovery on my first Linux managed node from an HP-UX OVOU 8.29 management server.

After discovery, I distributes osspi templates to the node, including the OSSPI-alarmdef_write, but I get syntax errors. The process did not create the osspi_alarmdef file, but instead created the osspi_alarmdef.chk file, which was expected.

Here are the contents of osspi_alarmdef.chk

Note:

CHECKDEF is dependent on the coda process to define metrics.
Make sure coda is running before executing CHECKDEF.

Unable to complete command: errno 25 (Inappropriate ioctl for device).
Child process: exit status 1
Error 64. Can not continue.
Program ended due to error.

I also turned on tracing and I am including the trace file from the managed node.

Thanks for all the help.
