Thanks for your suggestions, James -- I think we're getting closer.

>> You said you said turned off TEC forwarding.  How did you do that?

I had *thought* we had turned TEC event forwarding off.  In fact, not the
case.  We control this through the Tivoli/Netview Policy Region, by
right-clicking the Netview icon/Configure/Configure Event Forwarding to
Tivoli.  It was set to 'On" with a rule defined!!  Both Netview's have this
feature enabled with different Tivoli Event Servers.  However, I suspect one
of the Tivoli servers may have had changes recently and perhaps the events
had nowhere to go.  There was data in the cache file -- although since we
recently restarted Netview, it was small.  We're going to turn event
forwarding off and see if the problem recurs...feeling positive about this.
Thanks VERY much for your help on this, James.  I'll send an update if
nothing further happens in a few days so the group knows the outcome.

Mark

        Dollars to donuts, that is your problem.  The presence of
tecint.conf is how
        nvserverd knows to forward to TEC.  So yours is spending a lot of
worthless time
        trying to do just that, even if there is no TEC on the box he is
sending to.
        I'll bet you have a nice big /etc/Tivoli/tec/cache file too. These
files should
        be deleted.  As for recycling the daemon, that is the sure way to
make sure no
        attempts at TEC forwarding are going on.  There is the nvtecia -stop
command,
        but I don't know for certain how well it works at your level, since
I just fixed
        a major bug in it for 5.1.3.  You could try it and see if your
problem goes
        away.  But you must delete or rename those tecint.conf files so this
does not
        re-occur.

        You said you said turned off TEC forwarding.  How did you do that?
