Problem with ovtopmd (lost connection with trapd)

["Pretorius, Vynita" <VPretorius@fnb.co.za>]

Hi All

We are running Netview/AIX ver 5.1.2 on aix 4.2.1.
The problem is ovtopmd is failing ( lost connection to trapd) which then
causes netmon (lost connection with ovtopmd) to fail.

In the Nettl.LOG00 the following message appears.

Initialization done.

Please could someone assist me in rectifying this problem.
Also is there another log file that will tell me why ovtopmd is falling
over?

Thanks
