When you copied
/usr/OV/conf did you get the whole tree or just that level of the
directory? You need the whole tree since the actual OVSNMP database is in
snmp.conf_db subdirectory. "tar -cvf OVCONF.tar /usr/OV/conf/*" gets
the whole tree.

Netview
Hi
Olivier, you're right the community name for my hostname
(snmpd.conf) wasn't the same with the netview
configuration.
but what i
don't understand is , yesterday i did a backup of my netview pre-prod to my
lab.
I mean, i
copy /usr/OV/conf, /usr/OVdatabases, /usr/OV/www/conf DIRs from
preprod to my LAB
i did a
reset_ci and now, i should have the same conf file for both server of them....
BUT what
is strange, is when i did this command on my LAB
xnmsnmpconf -resolve
`hostname` | grep ^community
Now when i
did this command to my pre-prod server i get
How is
possible that Netview LAB and Netview Pre-prod aren't the same "hostname"
community name if /usr/OV/conf dir is the same of both server ??? Does i
miss some CONF dir to Copy ?

Domenico,
your configured community names
seems not to match.
Make sure you have read acces
for both, the hostname and loopback.
snmpget `hostname`
system.sysObjectID.0
snmpget 127.0.0.1
system.sysObjectID.0
Compare your community names in
/etc/snmpd.conf with the read communitys configured in your NetView snmp
configuration:
xnmsnmpconf -resolve `hostname`
| grep ^community
xnmsnmpconf -resolve 127.0.0.1
| grep ^community

[nv-l] Error when
starting Netview |
|
Hello all, when i start Netview i get this
error :
WARNING: Unable to query this system using SNMP
possibly due to:
a) SNMP Agent
not running
b) nvsecd not
running
c) other network
configuration problem on local system
This may result in configuration and operational
errors.
You can use the
following command to verify the SNMP Agent
is operational after correcting the
problem:
/usr/OV/bin/snmpget aixtivlab1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
