Re: [Devmon] Alarms msgs

[Schwimmer, E. E *H. <EE...@hs...>]

Devmon supports error summaries at the top of a table using the
".errors" oid flag.  Most of the cisco templates provided with devmon
have an example of this:

TABLE:
Ifc name|Ifc speed|Ifc status
{ifName}{ifAliasBox}|{ifSpeed}|{ifStat.color}{ifStat}{ifStat.errors}
                                                            ^^^^^^^^
That flag within the table will cause errors to be printed above the
table.
Does that do what you want?

If devmon, while parsing a table, runs into a branch OID w/o data, it
handles it in one of two ways: if it is a primary oid (i.e. the first
oid listed in the table template), the table is left blank.  If it is a
non-primary oid, it will whine about it and throw an error (a yellow
alarm, I believe).
