Let's be clear about this. If a node is unmanaged IN ALL MAPS, then
there will be NO interface up/down events generated. This is true on
NT as well as on AIX. If you are getting Netview events for unmanaged
nodes, you must therefore have more than one map, and the nodes
are managed in at least one of those maps.
If you have thousands of unwanted workstations, you can exclude
them from discovery by using a seedfile; you can also umanaged
them.

Subject: Re: [NV-L] Events from unmanaged nodes
I see the same on NetView 6.01 for NT; the only way I found to avoid
pinging
thousands of unmanaged workstations was to turn off discovery and delete
them.
On AIX, unmanaging nodes _does_ stop netmon pinging them - surely it is
supposed
to work the same way on NT?
