Thanks for the info ... this points me in the right direction.
The symptoms being exhibited are on 1 of my 2 remote consoles, I am getting
incorrect results. Situation:
1 - AIX Netview Server
2 - AIX remote display to 1
L - Linux remote display to 1 (this is the new hardware release)
On 1 and 2, my version information is coming up correct. On L, my version
is coming up incorrect. 2 and L use the same remote shell, export DISPLAY
functionality to access 1. The Version being displayed on L is a few
versions old. This is the weird part, it would be more understandable if L
was displaying garbage or an uninitialized variable, but it is not ... the
data is valid, but old.
I have a few other things to look at, but if there is anything that comes to
mind, maybe an ENV variable or init script, please let me know. I know this
is a configuration issue on my side, but I have never worked with the
version facility before and am not sure where to start.
Thanks,

"On Version" under Help should give you a list of various NetView
components and the major Version and Release number (e.g. V7R1)
So whether you have 7.1.0 or 7.1.3 with the Fixpack, that's what you
should see.
I don't work on ovw or the Help, but this is standard NetView function.
If you look at all the registration files in /usr/OV/registration/C you
should see a Version keyword with the displayed value in quotes. I think
you can just play with these if you like. Nothing else depends upon them.

Subject: [nv-l] Help : On Version : f.on_version
I am trying to find out information on the ovw registration file for
"Help",
"On Version". I am not sure if this is functionality my office has done
or
is internal to Netview. I am getting some undesirable results and would
like to research it further. However, I cannot seem to find any
information
on this topic.
Any help appreciated, thanks,
