Is ovtopmd coring?  Look in /usr/OV/PD/cores/ovtopmd (or / if there is no
ovtopmd subdirectory).  If you have a core , then you will probably need to
call Support, but it is most likely due to a "bad" object in the database.
You can try running ovmapcount -a  and then ovtopofix -A ( -A if you have
just one map, -a if you have several; the ovwls command will show you how
many you have).   This might fix it.  Else call Support.
Good luck.

Subject:  Netmon crashing everyday





Hello list !

Just a small one...

netmon (and ovtopmd) is stopping everyday on my nv6k 5.0, because
of ovtopmd losing connection with trapd.

It restarts correctly when I do it manually (ovstart netmon). It's just
really annoying.
(and, of course, no polling during that time...)

Any ideas ?

Thanks !
Cheers,
Luca
