And after the reset_ci, you should also do a 'mapadmin -u <hostname>' using the hostname of the new box.  See the manpage.

Yes.  The NetView database contains information about the NetView box itself.  It "knows" its own name and address and where the maps are located.  If you move a backup to another machine, then all that has to be changed before the GUI will come up or the daemon configuration can be modified.  And that's what reset_ci does.  It resets the NetView host specific info in the database to the machine one which they now reside.


Wanna see how it works?  It's a script and you can trace it.

NV 7.1.3 / AIX 5.1

 
I am transferring Netview database from one server to another server (different IP addresses and hostnames) using nvhotbackup. Do I need to run reset_ci on the server I am restoring on? Thanks.

 
Cheers
 
Fawad
