RE: [nv-l] NV 7.1.3 FP3 install fails

[Oliver Bruchhaeuser <oliver.bruchhaeuser@de.ibm.com>]

In order to execute the "backout",
the backout script has to stop all running NetView processes.
After doing this with the usual commands,
it - to be on the save side - additionally kills all the remaining processes
having "OV" in its name.
So if you call the backout script with
its full path like:
/usr/OV/service/V713/FixPack3/backout
it will unfortunately kill itself.
The workaround would be to first:
cd /usr/OV/service/V713/FixPack3/
and then:
./backout

While trying to backout of
the FP3 install by using the /usr/OV/service/V713/FixPack3/backout script,
backout fails and I get the following error:
 
# /usr/OV/service/V713/FixPack3/backout
11:20:31 Performing Prerequisite
Checking.
11:20:31 Backing FixPack3 out
of NetView installation.
Killed
 
Any ideas? Thanks.

Check that all NetView daemons, utilities, web and jre processes have been
stopped including nettl logging. Run slibclean afterwards. Then try again.
