Unable to Register daemon

[Anne Schahfer <Anne.Schahfer@TRW.COM>]

Whenever I issue the command ovaddobj /usr/OV/lrf/<daemon>.lrf, I receive the 
error:

ERROR: Unable to connect ot NetView NMS (have you done ovstart?)  (OVs 1-16)

I get the same message  when I issue the command smitty nv601ab5 and specify a 
host to forward all of my traps to.

All of the daemons in my ovsuf file are running and I am logged on as root.  

Any ideas of what's out-of-wack on my system?

Thanks, Anne Schahfer
