Whenever you start the GUI, the name of the map and how it is opened is in the
lower right hand corner. If you have only one map, the dafeult one, then it
will say "default: read-write" or "default: read-only". If you have more than
one map, and ovwls will tell you, then you can select which map to open and how
you want to open it, provided the map permissions allow it, on the netview
command itself, as for example
netview -rw -m mymap
where "mymap" is your map name. See the man page on netview for details.
Normally this isn't necssary because the first user gets the map read-write.

Subject: Netview Read\Write Map
Does anyone know how I can check to see if I have Read\Write Map enabled on
Netview, and how to enable it? I am trying to integrate Netview with BMC
Patrol and the Patrolview client won't launch. I was told the problem may be
with my Read\Write Map setting.
I appreciate any help you can provide.
