Al,
all of the info you have gotten so far is good but I would suggest you copy some
other
things as well. I think you should also copy the <ovsnmp> db, lrf, rulesets,
seedfile, and
ESE.automation. Once you unpack that database on the new server and start
daemons, netmon can look for the same seedfile, and your rulesets should
work as well. If you have notify on there you should pack that as well. Also
try to use
pax instead of tar because tar doesn't work well with hash files.
db source:
cd /usr/OV
ovstop netmon
pax -wvf backup.pax databases/ lrf/ conf/rulesets conf/ovsnmp.conf_db
conf/ESE.automation <path>/seedfile
(you may think about oid_to_sym files as well, it depends if you defined
anything in there)
compress backup.pax
ftp the file to you destination server
db destination:
uncompress backup.pax.Z (in the /usr/OV dir of you dest. server)
ovstop nvsecd
pax -rvf backup.pax
ovstart OVORS_M
reset_ci
mapadmin -u default:<hostname>
nvstat -cleanup
stopsrc -s snmpd (to be safe, only on AIX)
startsrc -s snmpd
xnmsnmpconf -clearCache
ovstart
nv6000
(you may want to let NetView work for a while before you do any kind of
ovmapcount
or ovtopofix)
