Re: Re: How to configure per user correlation rulesets?

["James Shanks" <SHANKS@us.tivoli.com>]

This is a multipart message in MIME format.

It does work.  It works for me and for everyone else who has tried it.  We 
have been giving this advice about Nvevents for years now and it is 
documented.
If you search these archives, then you will see this advice has been given 
before. 

If it is not working for you then there is some other problem you have to 
solve.
Are you using the CDE?  Then you may have to log all the way out and back 
in again the get the Xdefaults to be read again, or you should do
xrdb -merge Nvevents 
from your home directory. 

Wht operating system are you using?  AIX?  Solaris?  What level?

James, thank you for your fast response.

As far as I understand according to description in Admin Guide i should
copy nvevents.correlationRule variable from /usr/OV/app-defaults/Nvevents
to users $HOME/.Xdefaults and then change it desirable value. I did this -
it does not work. For test purpose I copied variable OVw*upStatusColor to
$HOME/.Xdefaults and changed it to black. I expected that all up objects
will appear black on map. Again nothing happend after restarting NetView
graphical interface. In fact, later I made the same change directly in
/usr/OV/app-defaults/OVw without result too. Anyway - I made global change
in /usr/OV/app-defaults/Nvevents:  I changed nvevents.correlationRule to 
my
ruleset - and it worked.
What I am doing wrong?

That is fully undestandable.
