Subject	RE: [nv-l] Netmon not responding?

Senny, did you ever think of calling IBM Support and reporting the problem? That's why they are there. FP04 is already out the door, and the Windows version was late precisely because of problems with Windows 2003 which weren't discovered until very late in the testing cycle. As I reported on this forum before, Microsoft changed their socket API, adding a new message to be issued under certain conditions, and, of course, failed to document the change. I don't know whether FP04 will solve your problem or not, but perhaps you could have had a definitive fix much sooner if you had involved Support. This isn't Microsoft; it's IBM. We believe in same-release fixes whenever possible. There's no reason for any customer to suffer problems with IBM software by herself or himself.

We have removed FP03 and reverted all databases back to normal. Now Netview is running without any issue. We are still unsure on what part of FP03 brings up this issue on Windows 2003 platform. Anyway, if possible you can give a try by removing FP03.

Hi, Windows 2003 Std SP1 Neview 7.1.4 FP03 After the initial discovery (around 47 Nodes) whenever we try to "Demand Poll" or "Quick Test" or any other 'netmon' related task on any node it just keeps saying " Waiting for Netmon to respond"? the netmon.trace file is empty. Are there any compatibility issues with Windows2003, this is the first time we are facing this kind of problem. Urgent Help is requested. Regards, Usman Taokeer Si3.
