Re: Netview Upgrade Questions

[ronnie.ross@springs.com]

We run NetView V6 AIX (working on getting V6.01) with Optivity 9.1 AIX.  It
installed without any problems and integrated correctly into NetView (all
icons are right).  We used web ports 8080 for NetView and 8090 for
Optivity.  This is working OK.  The only problem we found in Optivity is
the superping daemon.  It seemed to ping stuff that was down EXTREMLY fast.
Thousands of packets.  So we just stop the daemon and now it works OK.

No experience with NT stuff.

Greetings to all.  I am new to this group and to the more modern versions
of
Netview and am looking forward to communicating with people who have
experience implementing NetView on AIX.  I have several questions that I
hope may spark some response.

1.  Does anyone have experience with connecting and transmitting data
between NetView 6000 V5.0 or V6.0 for AIX and Optivity 9.1 residing on an
NT
or Solaris platform?  If so, are there any problems to watch out for when
setting up this connection?

2.  Has anyone integrated Optivity 9.1 for AIX on the same AIX box with
NetView 6000 V6.0?  Were there any problems?  (We tried to put NetView 6000
5.1 and Optivity 8.x on the same AIX/RS6000 box and it was a disaster. -
The
9.1 Optivity is supposed to work with AIX but I haven't found anyone who
has
done it yet.)

3.  Has anyone recently upgraded from NetView 5.0 for AIX to 6.0 for AIX?
What problems were encountered?

Thank you all in advance,
Jackie Hufnail
