Re: [nv-l] NetView and MySQL

[MUM@zahid.com]

Just for you information NetView on
Linux does not support Tivoli Environment. So there is no question of having
Tivoli Frame work but the Event Manager could route the events to Tivoli
Frame Work if you have one in your environment.

Further more, NetView in AIX has support
for Tivoli Frame Work and can be installed using Tivoli Desktop.

Is it essential to have a relation (or
no relational) database for NetView to Work?

We did manage to install NetView and
we are getting some information but this information is not very clear
and we can not for example create a Graph based on collected data, could
you please provide some help in this regard?
 

Thanks and Regards

Subject	Re: [nv-l] NetView and MySQL

Basically, No.  

RDBMS support for the NetView for UNIX versions requires
using the Tivoli RIM (Relational Database Interface Manager) product,  which
in turn requires the Tivoli Framework.  The way it works is that NetView
talks to RIM, and RIM to the RDBMS.  As it says in the 7.1.4 Release
Notes, in the section "Product Notes",  under the seventh
bulleted item, that  there is no RIM support for Linux because there
is no support for RIM in the Tivoli Management Region on Linux.  
But this may have changed recently.   I don't know as I don't keep
up on Framework issues. 

But even if RIM were now available on Linux so that you
could install it and NetView using the Framework, I would not expect that
MySQL was a supported RDBMs for RIM.  In the past only DB2, Informix,
Oracle, and Sybase schemas were available for NetView.

Subject	[nv-l] NetView and MySQL

Hi, 

NetView        : 7.4.1

OS                :
SuSE 8.1 Professional 

Does NetView support MySQL? If so then can you please
refer to me a document which explains how it can be done.
