Yeah, you can just restart the daemons and that should get things going
again, but it doesn't begin to tell you what is wrong.
ovstatus will tell you if the daemons are running.  If not, restart 'em and
look for cores in /usr/OV/PD/cores.  If they are running, then you have to
look for other evidence.

I would suggest you start with netstat -a  and look for sockets with high
values in their Send and Receive  queues.   If you find some, and they are
nvcorrd sockets, it is time to look at any rulesets you have running in ESE
automation.  It is also a good  procedure to look at trapd.log and see what
is the last trap shown there versus what is the last trap in an event
window.  I always try the event command to see if that one shows up
anywhere.

Depending on what you find, and how often it happens, a call to Support is
in order.

If this is the same problem we used to have occassionally running NetView
4.x -

ovstop nvserverd
ovstop nvcoord
ovstart nvcoord
ovstart nvserverd

I have not seen this problem since upgrading to NetView 5.1
