reset_ci is a script and you can trace what it does if you like.

I think you are getting a failure trying to talk to the oserv.  That code
was put into NetView V5 (or 5.1 -- don't remember which) by some
well-meaning soul who thought he should try to fix your oserv problems too.
But it only works I am told if you installed in the standard way -- your
box is the TMR server and there is a root admin with permissions to do
anything -- the sort of thing you'd get if you installed Framework just to
run NetView.  Anything fancier than that will probably fail.  Anyway, I
believe there was an APAR and a fix in 5.1.1 about this.

Hi, group!
This is what i'm getting from /usr/OV/service/reset_ci

Start of reset_ci, after successful completion
you will receive a reset_ci finished message.
Reregistering /usr/OV/lrf/ovesmd.lrf...
ovaddobj - Static Registration Utility
Successful Completion
Reregistering /usr/OV/lrf/ovelmd.lrf...
ovaddobj - Static Registration Utility
Successful Completion
{ SYSTEM_EXCEPTION StExcep::INV_OBJREF { 28 NO }}
reset_ci finished

Anyone seen something like that?
Any ideas what it could mean?
As long as it says: reset-ci finished...
Well, just wondering...
Regards, Ralph.
