Here's some info on it: - the command requires environment variables be set first; these are in another script. I copy that env script into a new, temporary script, append the wpostemsg command on the end, and then execute the whole thing. If you can get the environment set first, then you can just issue the wpostemsg command - the command has required parameters and optional parameters; some of these optional parameters can only be used if your installation has genned certain 'slots' to be active on the alert message. (An alert message has about 30 or 40 attributes called slots; not all are used. We use the slot or attribute called 'sub_origin' to put our extra detail info into. The message field is not big enough to contain all the detail and actually, we would rather keep the message field content at a high level and put the detail in the sub_origin field/slot). - here is an example of a wpostemsg command:
/script/directory/name/wpostemsg -r "put severity level here" -m "put message here" hostname="put server name here" sub_origin="put detail here" tivoliclassname MQSERIES That last item (MQSERIES) equates to something defined to Tivoli, but it escapes me now. -----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Broderick Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2004 4:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: WBIMB SNMP Thanks Peter, I would assume it has parameters that allow you to refine the alert up to the console.
