I know that this is not new news, but wanted to provide information on a Y2k
issue found with NetView for Unix.
Flash for NetView Y2k issue documented in APAR IY07219.
Users affected: Any NetView for Unix user that uses nvColToSQL to convert SNMP
flat file data into a
SQL database or any user of NetView Tivoli Decision Support Guides. This is not
a service down situation.
Resolution: An efix has been coded for IY07219 and is available by contacting
Tivoli service.
IMPORTANT: This fix repairs the conversion process to ensure data integrity for
snmpCollect data
transferred AFTER installation of the fix. Data converted after the year change
and before the installation
of this fix must be deleted from the relational database using the nvColTable -C
command and reconverted
from the existing flat files in /usr/OV/databases/snmpCollect. These files are
not deleted when converted
to the relational database so they are still available to be converted
correctly, using the repaired
nvColToSQL command.
