>> my comments on Catalina's questions
Netview 6.0.2, Framework 3.7.1, Aix 4.3.3.7
We only have 1 map (default).
When we unmanage a node from the R-W map, the Read only map shows
green/red and not wheat. If the user, refreshes the map then it turns
wheat.
>> yes that is how it works
Scenerio:
I unmanaged a server from R/W default map. I then brought down the server
and it turned "red" on the read only map. when i brought up the server it
turned "green". It was still "wheat" in the read/write map. When we
refresh the read only map, it turned "wheat". Why is netmon still polling
somthing even though we tell it to unmanage it?
>> because it is still managed in the topology database as long
>> as one map has it managed, even if that is a r/o copy of the map.
Scenerio:
on the IP internet map one of the location container is we drill down,
several more loc. containers. 1 is yellow the rest are green. we drill
down on a green one. all location containers are green. we drill on a
location that is green it contains several ip network icons that are green
and one network is "white" unreacheable, underneath it a router is red.
Since netmon is not polling this router how can we know that it is still
down? Is this the way its supposed to work? How are we supposed to know
that that router is down? Shouldn't the parent be yellow?

yellow or red.
