Deleting objects from the object database has no effect on whether or not 
events display.


Current events are those which are held in the in-memory cache of the 
daemon, nvserverd.  When you ovstop all the daemons or just him, that 
cache is cleared.  So if you have just started all the daemons and you do 
not see any events, it may simply be that none have been received yet. 
Netmon will not send traps until after the fully initializes and finishes 
his config checks. 

You can check to see if everything is working by just sending a dummy 
event.
        event -h dummy1
will send a Node Up event for a host with the name of "dummy1" to the 
event window (assuming you are displaying Node Ups, as almost everyone 
is).
If you see it, then all is fine and you just have to wait for new events 
to come it.

If you are running under the control desk in ovw, you will not see any new 
events in the event window until map synchronization is complete.

        Subject:        [nv-l] removed object from object database

 

Hello,

Netview 6.0.3
AIX 4.3.3

I have deleted severals object in my object database with the command
ovwdbdmap -d "IdOfObject"
I use this command because they was neither in the topology database nor 
on
my map, it was the only solution to remove them.

After this commands when i make an ovstart everything is running properly
but there is no more event in my control desk on the Netview GUI.But ican
see them i the trapd.log file.

Does someone has an idear of what is happenning?
Is it only a display problem.





Cordialement.
