You have the basics correct.
1. Post a message to all users that NetView is going down, please log off,
or you will be logged off.
2. Exit all running interfaces. You can do this with the "ovwexit" command,
but the users need to known that the GUI may go down with them taking any
actions.
3. If you are running any other applications that rely on NetView
databases, stop them first. Nways comes to mind. "ovstop cmld".
4. Then "ovstop nvsecd", does not have to be two steps.
5. Last for NetView "nettl -stop"
6. Then I would see what lets you might want to stop to speed up the backup
process.

Subject: How to stop all running daemons by shell script?
AIX 4.3.2
Netview for AIX 5.1.1.
I have to backup a Netview system once a week by 'mksysb' command.
To have a correct backup I suppose I have to stop all Netview daemons.
So the script that I'm going to run is the following:
...stop all running interface...
ovstop
ovstop nvsecd
ovstop ovspmd
nttl -stop
Is it the correct way?
Is there a more easy way to do it ?
and what about the NetviewWebServer daemon that still remains running
after
this shell script ?
Thank you
