Thank you for all of the help you have given me the last couple
of months with Netview. I really appreciate it! I am fairly new to
Netview and so I have a lot questions. The mailing list has really
helped me out.
I have been working with Tivoli support on a problem I have with the
location.conf file. They have fixed the problem in 6.0.1 and my
locations are all created successfully now.
The problem I am having is that only a few of the networks get placed
in their correct location container when I do a mapgen. Some networks
end up in locations that they shouldn't be in and most of them just
end up on the IPMap.
Here is a snippet of my location.conf file:
North_East 0 Site
South_East 0 Site
North_West 0 Site
South_West 0 Site
North_Central 0 Site
South_Central 0 Site
JFK007 10.157.192.0-7 Site North_East
JFK007 10.128.0.24-27 Site North_East
JFK007 10.128.2.128-175 Site North_East
JFK003 10.157.192.8-15 Site North_East
JFK003 10.128.0.40-43 Site North_East
JFK003 10.128.3.128-175 Site North_East
JFK005 10.157.192.16-23 Site North_East
JFK005 10.128.0.48-51 Site North_East
JFK005 10.128.4.0-47 Site North_East
JFK001 10.157.192.72-79 Site North_East
JFK001 10.128.0.72-75 Site North_East
JFK001 10.128.10.0-127 Site North_East
JFK031A 10.157.192.24-31 Site North_East
JFK031A 10.128.0.80-83 Site North_East
JFK031A 10.128.16.0-255 Site North_East
JFK032A 10.157.192.88-95 Site North_East
JFK032A 10.128.0.88-91 Site North_East
Notice I have 6 parent locations. After that I have about 3000 lines
of nested locations that are formatted exactly like what you see. My
question is, are my IP ranges formatted correctly? In the manual, they
only specify the range up to the third octet of the IP address. Is it
ok to use the fourth octet if you are subnetting at that level?
I would appreciate any comments you might have on how I could improve
this process. I am discovering the network in pieces via the seedfile
per you recommendations and that works great! This location stuff is
holding me up a little though.
Thanks again!
Chance
