hostname & ip address changes.

[Christo Burger <christob@ABSA.CO.ZA>]

Some backgroung to my problem:

        We are running NV5.0 with AIX4.2.1 on a SP/2 node. They made changes on 
the
frames which lead to changes on the hostname and ip address of the netview
node.  (before called f5n1 now called f6n1)

        I ran the recovery options in Tivoli, set out in the Planning and 
Installation
guide,  and reset_ci on the netview side.

        All netview daemons came up wit the exception of ahmdbserver, 
NCMPserver and
RabmEventServer. I get the following messages after starting the r/w map:

No handler for exception:
The server refused the connection
Attempt to connect to server failed while looking up database
"/usr/rabmv2/db/rabmv2.db" on host "f6n1".
Possibly there is no server running on f6n1. You can try the command
"/usr/lpp/ODI/OS4.0/cset/bin/ossvrping f6n1" to check.
 (err_server_refused_connection)

        cmlstatus shows ahmtopod in state: started. /usr/OV/tmp/netnmrc.ovstart 
shows
: ...

        I did not find anything specific related on recovery of Router&Bridge 
manager
/ ATM campus manager in the Netview documentation. Maybe it is covered
somewhere else?

        Any suggestions/steps to recover from this?
