These are the steps I took:
FROM (Security OFF):
brought down the gui and daemons
tar /usr/OV/databases/openview
TO (SECURITY ON)
FTP all the tar files from the
FROM system
- Stop all GUIs ? close all maps
- Stop all daemons ?
?ovstop?
- Delete the contents of the following directories
/usr/OV/databases/openview:
- pax ?rvf
archive_file_db.tar
- /usr/OV/service/reset_ci
- mapadmin -u default:Netview2
- Restart the deamons
?ovstart?
- Restart Netview
?netview?
I just did an ovstatus nvsecd on the TO
server and it is running. Can I bring down the daemons with ovstop and retart
them /etc/netnmrc without bringing down the GUI?

the map? You mean you transferred all of /usr/OV.databases/openview,
didn't you? And the daemons were down when you did that, correct? And
then you restarted them and ran reset_ci and then mapadmin -u. Logged
into NetView as root or just UNIX?
The error you are getting indicates a
security failure, either that nvsecd is not running (if so, then you should
ovstop all the daemons and start them with /etc/netnmrc) or that nvsecd is
running and NetView security is turned on, but root has not done an
nvauth. So do an ovstatus and see.
If this doesn't help,
then perhaps you had better explain in detail what steps you followed
because Support does this all the time, and I do mean almost daily.
It's how you debug a customer's database. Did one system have security
on and the other not? Can you run nvsec_admin?

topology maps
I transferred the map but now I am not able to run
ovtopofix..
I get the following error NVS_isclientAuthized():
permission denied for "ovtopofix" A IBM Tivolit Netview login is required to
permit the the requested operation. authized=0 status=36
I am
logged in as root. I brought down the map, logout of the os. Logged in again
as root, brought up the gui as root and I still can not run ovtopofix. This
happed after I transferred the maps. I did an mapadmin -u and the
reset_ci
Any ideas...

transferring topology maps
Both systems are fully
installed and running? Then there is no reason why you cannot transfer
the databases AND trapd.conf between them. The only deal with
trapd.conf is whether you are forwarding to TEC. If not, then there is
not issue. If you are, then the systems must be configured
alike, with similar tecint.conf files using the same default event
class.
We transfer databases and trapd.conf from one machine to another
for problem determination all the time.

tranferring topology
maps
01/29/03 10:03 AM
I have a back up Netview server
running "upgrade" 7.1.2 AIX 433 ML 10 and would like to transfer the
topology map to the production server running "fresh install" 7.1.2 AIX 433
ML 10. They are both in the same subnet.
Is there a problem with
one being an upgrade and the other a fresh install? or can I just
transfer the /usr/OV/databases/openview and it will be ok.
I was told
before that I could not transfer the trapd.conf because of the structure
class or something. I dont know if t he same applies with topology
map.
thanks
