Hi Leslie,
Yes you are correct about the setup and yes I have installed the Patch on the NT
TMR server and the UNIX managed node.
The problem of security is more of the other way round, for the NetView
administrator to access NetView he needs to have at least "admin" global rights
to the TMR. Which gives them too much access to the other functions within the
TMR.
With the Noticeboard you can at least restrict them to which notices they
receive and you can have multiple Remote Control objects, within different
Policy Regions, each with the ability to control selective machines.
Thanks for you reply
Cheers
Dave

If I understand your environment, you have an NT TMR Server with Netview on
a Unix Managed Node. I have not seen this particular arrangement. The
Netview
Framework patch is on both the TMR server and the managed node, right?
In V6, I think of the NetView Server object as more like the Noticeboard,
or the
RemoteControll object. You should be able to copy it from one desktop to
another.
Rather than controlling it by policy region, control it by which Admin
Desktop it is
on. The Netview administrator gets his own desktop with the Netview icon
on it.
Cordially,

Subject: [NV-L] Location of NetView icon.
Hi,
I am installed NetView 6.0 for UNIX on Framework version 3.6.2 running on
NT
I installed the Tivoli NetView Framework Patch, then installed the NetView
Server. The icon for the NetView Server appeared in the Desktop for the
Root
Administrator. And for a Tivoli Administrator to access the NetView Client
they
need to have global "admin" rights to the TMR server.
What I would like to do is move the NetView Server icon into a separate
Policy
Region, so I can give the NetView administrator, "user" global rights and
the
"admin" rights to the new Policy Region.
Firstly, is this possible.
And secondly, how do I move the NetView Server icon into a new Policy
Region. I
know the NetView Framework Patch 5.1 used to add two new Managed Resources,
but
the version 6 of this patch hasn't, is this right or has something gone
wrong
with the installation.
Cheers
Dave
