Mike -

I cannot disgnose a performance problem on the list.  You will have to open
a problem with Support and ask for someone to assist you.  I would,
however, check that your DNS server is running well and that you get
responses back to nslookup very fast.  If you cannot start netmon, then I
would look to your seedfile, assuming you have one.  One bad entry in
there, a hostname which cannot be resolved, will keep netmon from starting.

Sorry but that's all I can do for you.

All the daemons are up and running.
There is a message in the netmon.trace files that states:
Warnings from /usr/OV/bin/nmcheckconf configuration check script
I've looked at nmcheckconf, there is only read permissions for user,
group and other, like it states in the beginning of the file.
Right now everything I do from within the user  interface is very very
slow.

Do  ovstatus | more  and see what other daemons are not running.  It is
most likely that netmon cannot start because one of his predecessors is
not
up yet.  If  the others are up, then go to /usr/OV/log/netmon.trace  and
see if you can find a clue in there.

I'm running NetView for AIX 4.1 on a AIX 4.1.5 platform.
The command ovstart netmon returns
netmon
OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
NOT_RUNNING
17078

exit(255)

All of the ovstart commands are very slow to execute, can anyone tell me
what is happening.
