Thanks for the suggestion Richard. NerveCenter was one of the products I
looked into during my search for an root cause analysis product. I have an
AIX system running NetView/6000. The SMARTS product for UNIX appears to be
the least administrative while being totally dynamic with respect to
network infrastructure changes and topology database changes.

I will post the results of the eval if anyone would be interested.

Hey Ken,

There is another product that I believe will rival SMARTS, its
NerveCenter by Veritas.
The only caveat today is it only supports NT, Solaris and HPUX.

Simple? No.

If you are considering the Tivoli Manager for Network Connectivity
product,
then I would suggest you first look in to the SMARTS, Inc. IP Fault
Manager
suite of products. Tivoli purchase a portion of the IP Fault Manager
from
SMARTS. You will get more product for the same dollars Tivoli will
charge
you if their current price structure is still in place. You can check
out
the SMARTS product on the web.

I am planning to begin evaling the SMARTS product in December.

        Is there a simple method to do root cause analysis in netview
without purchasing the Tivoli Manager for Network Connectivity product.
