Re: [nv-l] using oracle as database for NV

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

This is neither simple nor easy.

You need to install the NetView Database
component from the CD.  That should also include the NetView Databases
Guide book.  I would start by reading that to get an understanding
of way you can do and what you have to do.    The install is
covered in the Release Notes for NetView 7.1.

But there is a big caveat here.  NetView
talks to the RDBMS using the Tivoli Framework component called RIM.  So
in order to make this work, NetView must be installed via the Tivoli Framework,
and RIM must also be installed as a Framework app.  Neither will the
NetView Database Component install except in a Framework environment.  
 So you cannot even get started until you have the proper environment.
  No Framework, no relational data base support.    And
if NetView was not installed via the Framework to start with, you will
have to delete it and re-install it that way.  You can however, backup
your current NetView, and then do an upgrade install, and that will import
your current configuration and databases back into NetView.
