I have exactly the same problem. I'm running netview 5.1.2 on an AIX 4.3.3 box.
My ovsnmp.conf file has numerical IP addresses in it.
Is there a fix for Netview 5.1.2 ?
Thanks

You may be having the same problem I had. If
your ovsnmp.conf file has numerical IP addresses
in it, there is a bug in 6.0 (and 6.0.1) that
prevents netmon from doing a successful SNMP
query of SNMP accessible nodes, which fouls up
discovery big time since netmon can't get it's
hands on ARP tables and routing tables. Check your
/usr/OV/lib/nvsnmplib.a file, if it has a size of
329771, then you have a bad file. The good one should
have a size of 1248131. Contact Tivoli support to
get the new file and install it. It corrected a world
of discovery problems for me.
BTW, apparently the problem was that netmon wouldn't
pick up the communitiy string from the ovsnmp database
if the IP addresses were entered as numbers.
Good luck!
