I can confirm that you don't have to be in the Beta test group to get it. I
have it right now, but have not installed it anywhere. I believe account reps
could order it a few weeks ago even though it had not been announced. I got my
copy last week, and was quite surprised when it showed up.
Personally, I don't think a person should expect support until it's "official",
but I was considering installing it somewhere, just to see it running.

Hold the phone here, Bill.
The production version of 7.1 won't ship until October 26, so if you already
have 7.1, then you have to be part of the Beta program, right?
.
Now to be part of the beta program, didn't you sign an agreement and get some
pointers about not putting things about it, especaailly problems you
encountered on this public list until after it GA'd? I thought all beta
customers agreed to that and were given a special process for getting support.
Let's continue this discussion offline, because no one else on this list can
help you. I'm not sure I can either, but I know that a problem on code that
has not been released yet cannot be resolved here. Offhand, I'd say you have a
performance problem relating to ipmap, and that it is local to you, because we
did not see anything like that here during Verification.

Subject: [NV-L] [NV] Netview Version 7.1
I recently upgraded to Netview 7.1. The upgrade went fine with 0 errors
during the process, but I've started to
notice this problem. I will receive an event 'Node Down' and it shows up in
my control desk and gets forwarded to my Tivoli Event Console
simultaneously, but it's taking up to 3/4 minutes for the icon representing
the object to turn red on the map. I have ran all the utilities I can trying
to resolve this issue to no avail. (ovmapcount,ovtopofix, resolve database
inconsistencies thru serversetup menu) Any Ideas? Thanks in Advance.
