Greetings NV Forum,

Environment - NV 5.1.2, AIX 4.2.1

I have a few question on the events application in Netview:

1) Operations staff reports that sometimes the events window stops logging
events and they have to restart the NV GUI.  Events are still coming into
trapd.log at this time.  The freeze button is not on and no new correlation
rules were in place.  Just wondered if this has happened to anyone else and
where I might look to troubleshoot.

2) I have a frequently recurring event that I want to supress.  I went into trap
customization and changed it to "Log Only", yet I still see it in the event desk
- the event card even shows "LogOnly" - am I doing something wrong?  Please note
that I don't have the r/w map, but I didn't think this was necessary (I was root
at the time).

3) How can event filters be saved permanently?  I noticed in the Admin Guide
that there are 2 fields in /usr/OV/app-defaults/Nvevents (saveEnvOnExt and
loadEnvOnInit) - do I need to change these both to True?  The manual goes on to
say that if you want to save your workspace config, you must have loadEnvOnInit
set to True, so what is the purpose of saveEnvOnExt?

Thanks for the help in advance...
