Hi Joe,

the CWM known as Strataview is available as version 9.1.07 for AIX, which
includes
NV 5.1, and this should include 5.1.1.
I'm trying to set up SV 9.1.07 together with NV 5.1.1 on AIX 4.2.1. As far as I
know
Cisco only delivers SV with NV on AIX or SV with HP-OV on Solaris. I think you
can't
mix it to use Solaris, NV and SV !

>From my experience of SV+ on AIX, there are a lot of problems unsolved.
First: AIX 4.2.1 has a new system group ("shutdown"; GID=21) whch conflict with
the SV+ svplus group (same GroupID). If you are on AIX 4.2.0 and like to be Y2k
compliant,
you must install some patches which results in the maint.level 4.2.1 (=> same
problem).
I already opened bug CSCdm41565 at Cisco against this.

I circumvented that problem but now I have other problems and found multiple
errors
in the SV-scripts !! (If you need detailed information, just send me a note).
At all, I experienced a lot of disappointments with the Cisco support related to
the
wanmanager (CWM) product !!

Have fun___Stephan
