6.0.2 is running on Solaris 8 here or so they tell me.  What does it mean
to says "I can't start any ov processes"?  What errors do you get and how
have you tried to deal with them?  If you source the Tivoli environment and
issue "ovstart nvsecd" at least that much should start.

Subject:  [NV-L] Netview 6.0.2/Soalris 8



Hey List,

I've been trying to build a new server in my lab to put into production and
have been having some strange problems.
I'm running Solaris 8 on a Sun ultra 80, Netview 6.0.2, Framework 3.6.3.
and
I'm seeing 2 problems.

1. I close out the default map, when I go back in I intermittently get
"portmapper already running" (sunrpc problem?), at this time I can't get
the
map to start, after stopping and starting the processes with all the ov
commands, I end up rebooting the server and this seems to work and I can
start the map back up.BUT.........

Problem #2. Twice now, after I've rebooted the server I've been unable to
start ov processes and get no databases found.
 ovobjprint only shows the 1 smartset I created.
 ovmapcount shows no maps, and I had 4 maps.

This has happened twice now, Thanks in Advance for any help.
