Jack -
How did you make this determination?
This APAR you are talking about, IX60605, is just for the actionsvr
daemon -- no other parts of NetView were affected -- and it was fixed in
NetView Version 4. It has long been a part of the code you have, so I
seriously doubt that this is your problem. What makes you think it is?
What daemons are dying? Have you talked to Support?
At this point I don't have a clear idea of what your problem really is,
but NetView 6.0.3, the next level up from what you have, has been out for
over a year. I think there is a good chance that whatever your issue is,
it has already been addressed there. The upgrade only takes about half
an hour. To get the code, you can just call your local office and order
it. Else you can send an email to The IBM / Tivoli Software Distribution
center in Copenhagen, tivoli@dk.ibm.com, which handles all shipments
outside the US. Tell them your customer number and what you want, and they
will advise you how to order it.

Subject: [nv-l] APAR IX60605 trap with Octect string exceeds 249
character
Hi List,
I am running into trouble that Netview is crashing all the time. The
reason
- it is receiving traps with octect string greater than 249 characters.
(APAR IX60605)
Platform NV 6.02 on solaris 2.6
Questions:
1. Is this fixed in later versions?
2. There is a temp fix in the APAR which says "I have modified the code to
allow up to 500 bytes on strings that we have to manipulate (those that
contain a single quote character ') and unlimited for any other string. If
the 500 character limit is exceeded, we will truncate and log a message
that
the string was truncated."
How exactly can I carry this out? I need an urgent fix.
regards,
Jack
