The option  ovw -copymap "mapname" need a X-Server. The command start a
GUI.
You can make only a copy from default-Map to mapname.

There is an option on the ovw command that makes copies. See the man
page.

Hello,

Is there any way to create map copies without having to start the NetView
GUI,
open that map to be copied, and do a "File -> Save As" ?
Right now, a customer of us is doing the following to create map copies :
 - detects which is the latest map
 - copy the map files the following way :
     cp -R /usr/OV/databases/openview/mapdb/map_to_copy/current/*
/usr/OV/databases/openview/mapdb/default/current

Apparently this is working, i.e. whenever we open the GUI with the "new"
default
map, we see the content of the "map_to_copy" map.
But what about consistency of all related files (like mapinfo.pag and
mapinfo.dir) ?
Is this operation supported by Tivoli support ? If not, what is the
supported
one ?

Any info welcomed !
