You did a migration from V5, right? So in your V5 install, you created
Netview in a specific Policy Region, and that is where the icon was
created. After a migration to V6, the icon is left where it was. If it is
a new V6 install, the icon is created on the top level. Yes, it is still
created in V6. I cannot comment on if or how the nature of the Tivoli
resource was changed from V5 to V6. I take it on faith that it is a
different kind of thing when it's on the desktop than it is when it is
in a Policy Region. The NetviewInventory thing sounds like it
probably has to do with TIPN.

Subject: RE: [NV-L] Script for Creating Server Icon
Thanks to Greg and Leslie for the script. I was curious about the comment
that the server icon should be showing up in version 6. I want to see if I
can clarify it before trying the script.
When I upgraded from version 5, the server icon failed to appear on the
Tivoli desktop. I did have a new NetViewInventory Profile region and
profile manager appear but not the server icon. I also did not have any
errors in the log file and NetView has been functioning well since the
upgrade. If I need to change anything from the server standpoint I have
just been using the server setup utility. The reason I was asking for the
script was to verify if all the options that came with the server icon were
available with server setup.
So, my question now would be is the server icon supposed to be available or
not? I was under the impression that the icon would be replaced by server
setup, but this doesn't seem to be the case. If it is supposed to be
available, then how come there is no NetViewServer managed resource for
Tivoli? All I have is the NetViewInventory resource available to me. Could
someone please assist me in clearing up the confusion. Thanks.

I have not heard of anyone using this on V6, but here it is.
Myself, I would worry more about an incomplete install. I've
never see the icon not show up in V6. If it is a migration from
V5, it is in the policy region. If it is a new V6, it should be on
the Desktop.

Subject: [NV-L] Script for Creating Server Icon
Hello all,
I seem to remember a script that was available to create the NetView Server
icon. Is there anyone that can send this to me? I cannot locate my server
icon on the Tivoli desktop.
NetView version 6.0
Framework version 3.6.3
Thanks,
Scott
