I had a map.lock Deleted it and all is well.

 

I do have a total newb question though. How do I reposition a symbol? I have set the automatic layout for my map to off for current and sub maps. How do I actually move the symbol?

Yes, I think there is a file called map.lock down under usr/OV/databases/openview/mapdb somewhere.  But if that is there, I'd be kind of worried about how that migration took place, and what else might be wrong. Did they just restore a system backup onto a new machine? Did the ip address change? Do you have a good database backup taken using nvhotbackup, or tar while it was quiesced?  You may need to do a '/usr/OV/service/reset_ci' and a 'mapadmin -u'.

[NV-L] My Default map is locked

 

 

 




Our AIX admins just migrated our Netvirew server from a P5 lpar to a P6 machine.
 
Now I am getting errors that my default map is open for writing by another user. Is there a lock file somewhere that needs to be removed?_______________________________________________
