Re: [nv-l] Correlation question

Hey Jim,

I typically try to not recommend products
to the list unless I know of a way to accomplish what you want within NetView
as well..., with that said I'm making a shameless plug  here since
I haven't seen a response yet to your post.

If you would like to look at a 3rd party
product for NetView visit http://www.tavve.com/eventwatch.html.  It's
been around a long time in terms of network management tools and was originally
developed for the NetView platform by a former NetView engineer.

HTH,
David

Hi folks, 

I am somewhat of a newbie running NetView, I have used other network management
products in the past.  I am running V7R1 on AIX 4.3.  I am using
NetView to monitor segments, routers, switches and Unix Nodes.  I
am attempting to setup a correlation rule which will prevent a page going
out for every node on a segment if the segment goes belly-up.   Can
I create one rule per segment and apply said rule to every node on the
segment?  Or do I need to create and apply a correlation individually
to each node on the segment.  Here is what I want to avoid.  If
segment X.Y.Z is unavailable I do not want 50 pages sent to staff, one
for each node on X.Y.Z saying the node in unavailable.  I am looking
at Section 5 of the Administrators guide.  Is there a place with a
clear example of what I am trying to do?  I mustn't be the first guy
trying to do this.  I have searched the web and didn't find an exam!
ple. 

Thanks in advance. 

Regards, 

Jim
