James,
I am getting ready for a v5.1.2 to v6.0.1 NV upgrade. You mentioned the adaptive
polling was dropped. Was there a problem with functionality?

A Down interface in NetView is one that does not respond to ping. You can
control how long netmon waits for a ping in xnmsnmpconf. The one thing you
haven't told us about is xnmsnmpconf. Do the settings from your V3 machine and
your V5.1.2 machine match? What are they?
There may also be an issue with adaptive polling -- something that was added
between V3 and V5.1 and removed in 6.01 -- but there is no point going into that
just yet.

Subject: [NV-L] Private Interfaces are bouncing
Hello -
We have NetView 5.1.2, AIX 4.3.1 and Framework 3.6.1.
We have Solaris boxes and AIX boxes that are multihomed that have at least one
public network interface and one private network interface. What I am noticing
is that on the Solaris boxes only Netview is reporting that the private
interfaces are going down and then up at about 14-15 minute intervals. The
interface will change from green to red and the trapd.log says that it went
down, however it really does not. We can continue to use it even when Netview
says that it's down?
Tue Sep 19 10:48:58 2000 kettle.oit.umn.edu N Interface qfe1 down.
Tue Sep 19 10:48:58 2000 kettle.oit.umn.edu N Node marginal.
Tue Sep 19 11:03:08 2000 kettle.oit.umn.edu N Interface qfe1 up.
Tue Sep 19 11:03:08 2000 kettle.oit.umn.edu N Node Up.
Another odd thing is that we still have a Netview/AIX box running Netview
Version 3 that also monitors these same Solaris boxes but does not see the same
bounces. Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and have a great day! :-)
