This almost always means that you have a bad entry in your seedfile. If you
look at the file
/usr/OV/log/netmon.trace, it will probably tell you which node was bad. You may
not out
unresolveable hostnames in your seedfile. You may put in entries for nodes that
don't
exist, or are not up, and you may put in the IP address of anything you want,
but if you use
names (or something that netview interprets as a name because it is invalid as
an address),
then the name must be resolvable, as in 'host < name>' or 'nslookup <name>'.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I have a problem with NetView for AIX V4R1
I configured a seed file via smit as explained in the documetation
But since I did that, every time I start NetView I get the error
The network monitor (netmon) is not running.
Restart it with the command: ovstart netmon.
Doing this will not help (i.e. the error pops up again after a short time.
If I do ovstart -v I see
object manager name: netmon
behavior: OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: RUNNING
PID: 20380
last message: Initialization complete.
exit status: -
Now please bear with me, I was put in front of NetView 3 days ago
and I'm still struggling with it...
Would a kind soul help me.

BTW: Yes I did try to search for the info via the listserver,
but netmon is not a good search term...
