Hello list,

I have written a little piece of perl script that builds a file in 
'location.conf' format from a running Netview database (I have done it with 
Netview 7.12 on AIX, but I guess it is valid for other versions also).

The principle of the script is to retrieve the output of the 'ovmapdump -v' 
command and get the hierarchy.

I put it here on the list for anybody interested in it, and would like to 
receive any comment on it.   I know some improvement is possible, for instance, 
I I define a location beneath another one even if this latter does not exist 
yet (is this valid ???).


 

Any input welcome,

Bernard Baudoux,
Fortis Banque.
