automatic action refused by variables in SNMP trap

Hello,

I wish to run automatic action on OVOU server(https agent with 8.2 server).

I configured NNM's snmp trap event and OVO's action, both actions worked well.
NNM and OVOU are working by the same host.

1) (NNM)MIB values stored on other hosts(NON-managed node(w/o agent)) are
checked periodically by NNM's "data collection" configuration.

2) (NNM)If these values exceeded threshold value, Send SNMP trap by NNM's
"event" configuration.

3) (OVO)Receive trap and configured action(into active message and so on) is
performed.

It's satisfactory to the motion so far, but OVO's automatic actions didn't
work well, bacause event "source" trust/untrust problem..

Configured automatic action in OVOU are diabled(and unvisible in active message area)
with untrust source annotation.
I think, in this case, snmp traps are send by NNM and received by OVOU, but
it's interpreted as untrust source without knowing why.
I configured nodes(w/o agent) in remactconf.xml by hostgroup, still refused.

I want use event source(<$2>hostname w/o agent) in successional message and action(remsh from OVOU server itself to other host).

If there is good solution, please let me know.
Any help is much appreciated!

Sorry for my awkward English...

Thanks!

Re: automatic action refused by variables in SNMP trap

Hello,

Self resolved.

1. My configuration in remactconf.xml was wrong...needed permission to the localhost(doesn't mean:127.0.0.1), and need to restarting all NNM&OVOU.

2. OVO's message source definition was unsuitable..."source" definition was need changed to <$OPC_MGMTSV>.

It's all work fine now!

Glad if beneficial to someone who refers to this.

Thanks!
