Re: [nv-l] Newbie Question - Auto Map re-gen and Net MON

Otherwise, if you want to do a new discovery,
the re-gen will stop netmon and everything else, and go out and rediscover
everything, depending on your discovery settings.

| [nv-l] Newbie Question -
Auto Map re-gen and Net MON |
|
Hello All...
I have a newbie question.
I'm in a situation where one of
the net view servers has been neglected for some time and the map and db
is pretty much useless. I have cleaned up the seed file, and removed as
many entries from the host file as I can as we would try to rely on DNS
for resolution as well I have created a Location conf file based on our
ospf areas.
What I'd like to accomplish is
zero out the db's and create a new map and have fresh db's (start from
scratch).
My question is , do I only need
re-gen the map from the admin panel, to ensure everything is discovered,
or do I need to recycle netmon, then do a map regen ?
My concern is that we have well
over 1000 entries in the seed file (loop back address of various L2 / L3
devices) and am concerned that the traffic may bring down the switch or
router, we are 7/24 hr shop so no chance of doing this during maint. windows.
Netview is configured to do only local discovery and seed file, no wild
card ranges defined.
The box is NV 7.1. AIX 4.3.3 on
multiple 100 MB nics.
Thanks in advance
John Sobrinho
