[nv-l] netviewd

[desocio@us.ibm.com]

If netviewd will not run as a daemon, the highest likely problem is there is no virtual frame buffer.
Are you starting netviewd with ovstart or netnmrc?
You should see the following in your process table if starting netviewd by netnmrc:

/usr/bin/X11/X -vfb -n :2

This gets there via netnmrc running the script /usr/OV/bin/startXvfb, which you could run yourself, but netnmrc is recommended.

Hi All,

I have just installed NetView 7.1.2 and am having trouble getting the netviewd daemon to activate. I am at ML09 on AIX 4.3.3. Here is the message I get back:

 object manager name: netviewd
behavior:          OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state:               NOT_RUNNING
PID:                 40124
last message:        
exit status:         exit(1)

Thanks,
bob
