Yes, you can. But it is Optivity that has to tie to NetView. Install
NetView FIRST. Put the latest patches on (6.0.2). Then install Optivity
9.1. During the install, Optivity will find NetView and add stuff to its
menus. If you already have a map with lots of stuff, you will have to run
Update Symbols under Tools, Optivity Admin to update all icons to Nortel
icons if they are Nortel equipment. Otherwise, after you install Optivity,
all new devices should pick up the right icon.
The only problem I have had with the Optivity software is the super ping
deamon. This deamon seams to want to ping stuff that is down serveral
hunderd times a second. So I just manually stop the deamon. If I figured
out which file this gets started in, I would comment it out. Optivity apps
run just fine without this deamon. The other thing is it is so SLOW.
Nortel says latter this year, there will be a new version to address this
problem.
Have a good day.

Hi all.
Can netview 6.0.x integration with optivity 9.0 ? If the answer is
yes, then how can I get the related document to complete this task ?
