We're using NV 5.1 on AIX 4.2. Depending on what you define as manage, we
basically loaded the MIBs manually (NV5.x on AIX 4.2 is not officially
supported by Fore/Marconi) and monitor the status. WARNING, you will need to
load a lot of MIB files in the Correct Order!! We also convinced Tavve
Software Co. to add support for collecting data on port bandwidth into their
product to help with bandwidth analysis. Fore decided some time ago to stop
supporting AIX since they do not have very many ForeView customers that run
NetView or AIX.
These days, Fore/Marconi has new software for management on NT platforms but we
haven't started looking into the new stuff yet. We did eventually copy the
daemons from a previous NetView installation and are able to see front panel
views and other ForeView functions, its just not integrated into NetView's
menus in our case.
