Everyone, my apologies, I do have root access and was sudo'd in when launching serversetup. Since I was not making progress with the first error message, I proceeded to remedy the second error messag

Thanks James, we decided to let TEC perform the escalation after a timed interval. The TEC guy wrote the rule and it appears to be working well. Thank you again, Kevin Sperry IT Analyst, Data Center

Hello, With NV 7.1.5 on AIX, I have enabled RFI, netmon -K1 mode. I have read some documentation in the NV manuals and other NV users' email from this site. Is there no way to propagate the white col
White means unreachable and it is not my fault. The router causing the problem will be red, or yellow if it is only one interface causing the problem. I would be cautious about messing with this. Pro

Good morning, I apologize for such short wording and don't mind the "white" node. After I sent my email yesterday, we witnessed a remote site router go "white" in Netview. All downstream nodes were s

Addl Info: Test options are grayed only on the red symbols. They are present for the green symbols. Thanks, Kevin Sperry IT Analyst, Data Center Monitoring Control nationalgrid 7437 Henry Clay Blvd.
If an option is greyed out on the pull-down, then for some reason ovw thinks that option does not apply to that object. Take a look at /usr/OV/registration/demandpoll. At the bottom of the page are t

Hello again, With NetView 7.1.5 on UNIX, trying to run mib2trap on concatenated file. I am receiving the following… Errors - no script generated. Bad format for OBJECT TYPE(END): On or around l
Remove RFC 1212 from your concatenation. It is not needed and cannot be parsed any way. Ditto with RFC 1155. These RFC's contain macros which define the basic parts of the MIB tree. And macros cannot
James, does he have to remove the ^M things from the file? Or are they supported now? This is on AIX, I think. Cordially, Leslie A. Clark IT Services Specialist, Network Mgmt Information Technology S
Good catch, Leslie. I assumed that the ctrl-Ms were the result of ftp'ing the file from UNIX to Windows without using ASCII mode and that the UNIX copy did not have them. But in any case, removing al

Good Morning, Yes, you are correct, the ctrl-Ms were a result of FTP'ing from WIN to AIX w/o using ACSII mode. I removed RFC-1212 and RFC-1155-SMI, re-concatenated the files and had an error on RFC-1

Good morning, I think I need to back up a bit. Before I dig down deeper, I want to verify that I am using the correct MIB. Perhaps I am using the wrong MIB. I was told to use the CISCO-PORT-STORM-CON
There is no way you can look at a trap and tell what MIB defines it. You can only search a database of MIBs and hope you get lucky. I suggest you open a PMR to Support and get some personal help. The

Hello again, 1. Using UNIX with NetView 7.1.5. Is it recommended to use the "TME transport mechanism" for sending alerts to TEC? 2. We are currently forwarding events in out test environment and have
Kevin, You have a couple of misconceptions here. 1. The TME transport mechanism requires that you have the Tivoli Framework installed on your NetView Machine and NetView installed as a Tivoli applica
