Have you checked the ovwdb cache size to make sure it is greater than the 25000 objects? The default is 5000. Change it with serversetup.

To nv-l AT lists.us.ibm DOT com cc Subject [nv-l] ovwdb high CPU after upgrade to 7.1.4

Netview 7.1.4
Solaris 8
Sun blade 1000 2x750 CPU
2 GB RAM
Approximately 25000 objects in the database

I just upgraded Netview from 7.1 to 7.1.4. The upgrade seemed ok, no errors
during the installations or the log files. The problem I'm having is that
now ovwdb process uses as much as 50% of CPU processing. The GUI
synchronizes constantly making the application very slow in response time.
I did the same upgrade in my test system with no problems, although it runs
a much smaller database.
I think I read somewhere a while ago about this situation, but I can not
remember what the recommended solution was. I can not find this problem in
the release notes.

If any one has any recommendation in how to solve this problem, it will be
highly appreciated.

Thanks
