Both systems are fully installed and running?  Then there is no reason why
you cannot transfer the databases AND trapd.conf between them.  The only
deal with trapd.conf is whether you are forwarding to TEC.  If not, then
there is not issue.  If you are, then the systems must be configured alike,
with similar tecint.conf files using the same default event class.

We transfer databases and trapd.conf from one machine to another for
problem determination all the time.

tranferring topology maps              
                      01/29/03 10:03 AM                                         
                              
                                                                                
                              
                                                                                
                              




I have a back up Netview server running "upgrade" 7.1.2 AIX 433  ML 10 and
would like to transfer the topology map to the production server running
"fresh install" 7.1.2 AIX 433 ML 10.  They are both in the same subnet.

Is there a problem with one being an upgrade and the other a fresh install?
or can I just transfer the /usr/OV/databases/openview and it will be ok.

I was told before that I could not transfer the trapd.conf because of the
structure class or something.  I dont know if t he same applies with
topology map.

thanks
