NetView is easy to recover. It is the Framework which is difficult.
If the IP address or hostname of NetView has been changed, start the
daemons and run /usr/OV/service/reset-ci.
That should do it.
Vladimir Petr just posted some thoughts on the Framework yesterday, but it
seems to depend on where the TMR server is and whether it is up. I cannot
help you there. Consult the Framework doc as he suggests:

Subject: Re: Changing Netview/TMR Server IP addr
Mark,
to change the TMR server ip address, you will have to run "odadmin odlist
change_ip" or "odadmin odlist add_ip_alias"
commands on the server. Anycase, look at the Framework planning and
installation guide, there is a section dealing
specifically with this issue. Also, man odadmin will show you the commands.
For NetView, you must update the ORS database by running the
/usr/OV/service/reset_ci script (when netmon and
snmpCollect and GUIs are down) after you changed the ip address. Then
ovstop and ovstart the daemons.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Vladimir.

Subject: Recovering from Hostname Change
Hi,
In the event that a customer changes their hostname without taking the
normal prescribed steps, what are the options? The platform I am
referring to is Solaris 2.6 running Netview V5.1. I would be interested
in knowing of ways of performing the following:-
1. Recovering the Framework element.
2. The steps for belatedly recovering on the Netview side of things -
please note that I don't mind if it is easiest to regenerate the maps
and databases from scratch.
Thanks in advance,
Simon Long
