Hi James,

I have experienced the same problem. Actionsvr was down and I was not able
to restart it. I checked all its references as suggested by you but I could
not locate any one. Usual ovstart/ovstop was also not helping and finally,
the server was rebooted to resolve this problem

Also, as clarified by you that opening the netview map should not be any
issue from any userid other than root even if actionsvr is down. In our
case, it was not happening. I mean no one was able to open the netview map
and every one was getting the same error message that required daemons
actionsvr is down.

In nvaction.alog there was an error saying that it could not open the port
1670 which is the default port. What could be the reason?

First, do a "ps -ef  | grep actionsvr" and kill with -9 any you find
running. 
My guess is that you have an old one that is no longer under control of
ovspmd and thus is not responding to ovstart/ovstop. 
You will find this recommendation in the NetView diagnosis guide.   


If that does not do it, then go to /usr/OV/log/nvaction.alog and look at
what is written there.  There may be error messages there to tell you what
is wrong. 

If the console is not coming up then you are trying to start it as root.
When you are root, the netview script will try to start all the daemons
which are not up. 
Use a different id and it will just give an error message and continue. 
Since actionsvr is only used to process actions from rulesets, and to load
the background ones from ESE.automation, it does not have to be running for
the console to be active.

Hello all,

I had NetView 6.0.2 on AIX 4.3.3
I had made some changes to the ESE.automation and stopped the actionsvr
daemon, When I tried to start the daemon it does not get started , it does
not happen for so long also hence I used ovdelobj to delete the
registration of actionsvr.lrf and added back using ovaddobj the
actionsvr.lrf. Still after doing this I am not able to start the actionsvr
daemon.
Can anybody advice which configuration I need to look in to to get it
normal.
I am not able to get the NetView console up due to this demon not getting
started, If I remove the registration I am not able to get the
ESE.automation in action.
Please advice ASAP

Thax in advance Regards
