Hi all,

I have a question regarding xnmgraph (running on AIX 4.3.1, Netview 5.1.3):

- does anybody know a trick to trigger xnmgraph-windows to update their data 
(like from Menue "File -> Update Data") from batch? 

Best Solution would be a "kill -xx" to send, but I don't believe this works. 
But maybe there exists a little program to capture X-events and send them 
afterwards to the applikation.

Background: for "proactive Network Management" (oh, I like this phrase... but 
it sells very well) we use a lot of xnmgraph-windows to show the data we 
collect with snmpCollect. From time to time (at least every morning and evening 
and in case of any performance problems due to "bad network performance") I 
have to update all these windows. A little script, looking for all 
xnmgraph-windows on my display and sending them some sort of event or signal, 
would be very nice...

I don't want to configure these windows to poll themselves as we use a lot of 
different polling-cycles, depending on the mib-objects and devices we poll, and 
I want them to be configured in snmpCollect and not in every xnmgraph-window we 
have opened.


Thanks for any help
