Hi James,
Some things that I would check are:-
-presence of seed file ( being used by netmon ) - especially looking for
distinctions between the two ( check the configurations of netmon through
SMIT configuration tool )
-Some element of division of the network between the two Netview servers
( eg. via backup - could see evidence of this via looking for unmanaged
networks ).
-Do you have collections defined differently on one machine as against the
other
( check submap of collections glyph )
I can't think of anything else for the moment but if I do I'll send it on.
Regards,
Simon
