Haven't done anything to modify how the NetView daemons are started on
system reboot. Are the started by /etc/netnmrc by default?
Check /etc/netnmrc and found:
if [ -f /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh ]; then
. /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh
fi
just prior to ovstart, so it looks like /etc/netnmrc is sourcing the Tivoli
environment variables prior to ovstart.

Subject: Re: ovtopmd exit on signal 255?
Signal 255 means you got a negative one (-1) return code trying to start
that
daemon.
The usual cause for this is that the Tivoli environment is not sourced when
ovspmd is started, so when he start ovtopmd, ovtopmd cannot find the $LIBDIR
libraries to load.
You can fix this problem in the short run by stopping all the daemons,
sourcing
the Tivoli enviornment, and then starting them
(1) ovstop nvsecd
(2) . /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh
(3) ovstart -v
If don't want to source the Tivoli enviornment, then you can just stop all
the
daemons (ovstop nvsecd) and start them with /etc/netnmrc.
Are you starting NetView out of cron? use /etc/netnmrc

Subject: ovtopmd exit on signal 255?
Running NetView v5.1.1 on AIX 4.2.1 and Tiv 3.6.1. Any idea what would cause
ovtopmd to exit on signal 255 or what it means? Check
/usr/OV/PD/cores/ovtopmd and the other directories here for core dump files,
found nothing. Searched the rest of the system for a core dump, nothing.
Based on some stuff I've got running in cron, it looks like this problem is
occuring after a reboot of the system. I've had this same problem the past 3
weeks after
system reboots.
Anyways, here's what ovstatus shows for netmon and ovtopmd:
object manager name: netmon
behavior: OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: UNSTARTABLE
PID: (never run)
last message:
exit status: -
object manager name: ovtopmd
behavior: OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: NOT_RUNNING
PID: 15606
last message:
exit status: exit(255)
To resolve the problem, I end up doing:
ovstop
ovstop nvsecd
ovstart nvsecd
ovstart
All the daemons come up and everything is fine. Any ideas???
