This is a multipart message in MIME format.
Well, Jim, I am as puzzled as I can be.  Perhaps someone else has an 
answer.  But I have personally seen databases moved from a 6.0.1 to a 
6.0.2 box (Support does this kind of this all the time, but I haven't 
recently ).  So what can you do?  Well, you could try getting a new tar 
file from the original machine and trying this again. You could also do 
"ovwls" on your 6.0.2 machine and see what it tells you.  It should give 
you back the complete hostname of the box it thinks your map is on. I 
would expect it to be fully qualified if you are using DNS.  Other than 
that, I am at a loss to suggest anything except to call Support.  This 
isn't my area and I don't understand why this is not working. 

Sorry

Jim - 

I was asking about the mapadmin command, not about reset_ci.  The error is 
about the map. 
As Steve Hochstedtler indicated, the relevant question is about the maps 
themselves. 
What do you get when you issue  mapadmin -l? 
What do you get when you try  mapadmin -u <hostname>  or mapadmin -u 
default:,hostname   ?

Then you may have to talk to support some more because mapadmin -u, if 
entered correctly, should have fixed it. 
There is no theoretical reason why data cannot be transported between 
6.0.1 and 6.0.2, unless the original tar was bad.  And reset_ci also does 
the mapadmin command under the covers so there is usually no reason to do 
it afterward. 

What exactly did you enter and what exactly did you get back?

Jim, 

  

you may try: 

  

mapadmin -u mapname:hostname. 

  

I moved my db from 6.0 to 6.02  and did not have this particular problem. 
But I came across this command when I was searching this list on the 
procedures to do it. 

  

I dont know if it still works.

I am moving from Netview version 6.0.1 on AIX 4.3.3, to Netview 6.0.2 also 
on AIX 4.3.3. I tried copying the database files using the tar/pax method 
recommended by Leslie, did a reset_ci, did the ovw 
-fields/-verify/-config, 
but I am getting the error "Could not open map: default. Map exists on 
machine 5xx". I called support (PMR 78535,379) but they did not think I 
could copy the database between versions 601 and 602. 

Has anybody tried this? Any luck? 

Thanks.

Jim -


I was asking about the mapadmin command, not about reset_ci.  The error is about the map.

As Steve Hochstedtler indicated, the relevant question is about the maps themselves.

What do you get when you issue  mapadmin -l?

What do you get when you try  mapadmin -u <hostname>  or mapadmin -u default:,hostname   ?

At this point the Tivoli NetView screen comes up, it says Initializing... accross the bottom, and when Opening Map comes up, I get a pop up window that says "Could not open map: default.  Map exists on machine:  5xx"


 

When I click the OK button, both screens exit. I will include the nv6000.log.

RE: [NV-L] Copying Database from 601 to 602


 


Then you may have to talk to support some more because mapadmin -u, if entered correctly, should have fixed it.

There is no theoretical reason why data cannot be transported between 6.0.1 and 6.0.2, unless the original tar was bad.  And reset_ci also does the mapadmin command under the covers so there is usually no reason to do it afterward.


What exactly did you enter and what exactly did you get back?

I tried the mapadmin –u command but it didn't help. I still received the same error message.

Jim,


 

you may try:


 

mapadmin -u mapname:hostname.


 

I moved my db from 6.0 to 6.02  and did not have this particular problem. But I came across this command when I was searching this list on the procedures to do it.


 

I dont know if it still works.

I am moving from Netview version 6.0.1 on AIX 4.3.3, to Netview 6.0.2 also

on AIX 4.3.3. I tried copying the database files using the tar/pax method

recommended by Leslie, did a reset_ci, did the ovw -fields/-verify/-config,

but I am getting the error "Could not open map: default. Map exists on

machine 5xx". I called support (PMR 78535,379) but they did not think I

could copy the database between versions 601 and 602.


Has anybody tried this? Any luck?


Thanks.
