Is there documentation that is as specific as what youa re describing that i can obtain and read somewhere? The only rela documentation that I know forlocation.conf is the first half of the actual file itself in the commented out section. Things such as how routers are defined and what all needs to be defined are not in the specs. The things you talk about such as having to make sure all the different subnets have to be in the location.conf file would be helpful. We rely heavily on the location.conf file for placement of all devices, we have over 100 remote sites that need to be populated correctly from a seedfile without the use of auto discovery. Thanks Chris Petrina
In order for location.conf to automatically place the router ALL subnets present on the device must be in location.conf container. If you have a router with 5 interfaces say in 4 different subnets (lets assume you have a pair of serial links to another location that are in the same subnet). all 4 of those subnets must be in location.conf container for that physical site. If you miss one subnet in location.conf the icon will float back to the ip internet map. -----Original Message----- From: owner-nv-l@lists.us.ibm.com [mailto:owner-nv-l@lists.us.ibm.com]On Behalf Of Christopher J Petrina Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 9:35 AM To: nv-l@lists.us.ibm.com Subject: Re: [nv-l] Same device multiple times Correct. However using a fairly specific Location.conf file. That device with the same name and ip addresses which shows up correctly in the submap that it should, also keeps showing up on the main IP Internet map. Now if you are saying that because this device has multiple IP addresses that it will show up wherever that network segment is, then I can understand that and remedy that.
Chris, NetView places a device on the IP Internet submap, when a device has multiple IP addresses in different IP subnets. HTH Bernard >>> cjp8@meadwestvaco.com 23-02-2004 15:43:57 >>> Me again, Q1: Why does entview continually find teh same device multiple times? I have a device that is already in one submap but it keeps finding it again and placing it ont he IP Internet map. I have deleted it from that submap, I have ran ovtopofix and ovmapcount and even after I delete it once it is polling time again it just finds it again and places it back on the map again?
