Michael -
Perhaps the reason that you are not getting any answers is that your questions
assume that NetView functions in ways that it really does not. There is no GUI
way to look at /usr/OV/log/ovevent.log.BAK even on the server itself, let alone
through the web. You would have to use some other tool, such as vi, even on
the server. And while the default size for the the ovevent.log is 128K, that is
only for the Events History function, not for current events, so it is incorrect
to call it the "NetView console control desk" default size.
As far as I know the web function of displaying events for a node is the same
function you get on the X GUI under Monitor --> Current Events, so I do not
believe there is anyway to go farther back than what is available in the current
event list.

Subject: Netview V5.1.1 Web Interface - Event Log size ?
Hello!
Let me re-clarlfy my question again, Have any one can tell me the default
event log size for
Netview web client - Node's history log/event via Netview Web - Diagnostic
function?
If Netview's console control desk event log full by system default setting -
128k, and then
put it into /usr/OV/log/ovevent.log.BAK, how can I retreive it? have any
Netview's API cmd

interface,

Subject: Netview V5.1.1 Web Interface - Event Log size ?
Hello !
Have anyone can do me a favor? I faced a problem regarding to NetView V5.1.1
Web Interface - Event Log content intermittent disappear for some monitored
Node/Object,
while I executed the "view Event log for subject node" from Web Interface -
Diagnostic option.
what 's the default size of it? is this also same as default Netview's
ovevent.log size
128k? what's kind of relationship between them? or they all came from same
source.
I also tried to re-boot Netview system via ovstop & ovstart, then issuing
'nv6000' to
start up Netview/6000, I found the Event Log content sometimes will be
changed or disappear
without any warning message, is this a ovevent.log override condition(over
default size 128k)?
or something else behaviour behind. I'm looking for the method of increasing
the Web Event Log
size, am appreciated anyone can help me solve the issue, thanks!
