Subject:  [NV-L] Problems with installing NV6.0.2 and configuring TEC
      logfile adapter



Ok, i give up.  HELP. (environment:  NV6.0, AIX4.3.3, TMF3.6.2)

First:  Taking to heart Mr. Shanks admonition to upgrade NetView from 6.0
to 6.0.2, i tried it with the following result:

(1)  somehow the /usr/OV/bin/pmd executable is missing after the patch is
installed.  (I fixed it by restoring the previous version.  This was
noticed when I tried running the ovstart command after completing the patch
install.)

(2)  netmon would not start.  ( I fixed it by restoring the NV6.0 version,
29 Dec 3430683 size, compared to the NV6.0.2 version, 22 Jan 3488499 size.)

Things "appear" to be now working normally.  Any clues on ramifications of
these 'fixes' ?

Second:  I tried configuring the TEC logfile adapter to send "node up/node
down" traps to the TEC.  Everything worked on the NetView side but on the
TEC side:

(1)  i ran the wimprbclass nvserverd.baroc <using my rulebase> which failed
because TMF3.6.2 doesn't like the 2nd line saying "category: OVCategoryE;".
( i fixed this by deleting this line from the nvserverd.baroc file and it
imported ok.)

(2)  i ran wimprbrules nvserverd.rls <using my rulebase> which had multiple
failures on every event filter in the nvserverd.rls.  How's come?

Anybody know what's up, what's wrong, what's the fix, what's happenin'?
