Scott hi,

  I know it does not sound logic however I do need to set the row count
to 1 in case row count returns 0  , can you show how to add that case
clause and dummy line in my below code ? 

SELECT a.eventuei AS _eventuei,
 a.nodeid AS _nodeid,
                 a.ipaddr AS _ipaddr,
                 now() AS _ts
            FROM events a
                WHERE
a.eventuei='uei.opennms.org/comns/backup-success-trap' AND
                (eventcreatetime > now() - interval '10 minutes')

Thanks !!!!
Kobi
