Re: [nv-l] NV 714 installation error

[George deSocio <desocio@us.ibm.com>]

Mario,

Your AIX system has ulimit for nofiles
(ulimit -n) set too high.  Change it to 32767.
Since you are in a Framework environment,
you must reboot after changing ulimit for nofiles (ulimit -n).

How to do this:  <backup files
before you change them>

You need to change the default ulimit
for nofiles (ulimit -n) for root.
This is in file /etc/security/limits
 <see the comments within the file>

After saving that file, telnet or other
login to the machine as root to check.  After logging in, issue
the "ulimit -a" command.  nofiles
should be 32767 (as changed in /etc/security/limits).
If still unlimited, check profile and
shell rc files, etc.

After you have caused root default ulimit
for nofiles to be 32767 and proven it is true by the login test,
reboot. 

Then as the other information instructs,
clean up the installation using the uninstall script on the cdrom.
Install. again.

Regards,
Geo.

Subject	[nv-l] NV 714 installation error

Hi list,

During a NetView 7.1.4 for AIX fresh install through Framework 4.1.1 at
an
AIX 5.2 box I got the following error message:

Something went wrong:
Media Packet:  "/mnt/cdrom/FILE33.PKT"
tvnmcnvq:FAILED (soft error)

(/tmp/NVS_714_NVFCONF_after.error):

Then run the uninstnv script on the NetView cdrom to uninstall NetView,

 Completed (with errors).

All pre-requisites are installed, including the Tivoli NetView Framework
Patch 7.1, both on the TMR and on the ManagedNode that will be the NV
Server. The /tmp/update.log file (mentioned above) has the following
output:
