Vladan,
netviewd is started when the daemons start, he is a daemon.
So once you login, netviewd is already running. In the past you
may not have had netviewd or not had it registered. If you do
not use the web client, you can de-register netviewd:
/usr/OV/bin/ovdelobj /usr/OV/lrf/netviewd.lrf
I would suggest stopping the daemon(s)(ovstop or ovstop netviewd)
before running this command. Once it is not registered anymore,
you should not have to worry about the read-write map as the first
map opened will always be read-write. If you have a problem with
other people running maps and you need the read-write map, you
can run "nv6000_smit KILLEUIS" and that should stop any other
running maps.
You should always be able to obtain a read-write map by running
"netview -dconsole", unless, of course, someone else has it running
in X.

Could you help me with this:
I restarted the machine, the first log on was from me through X, I have
started Netview, the first map I opened was in RO mode. Why is this not
happening every time? I never start netview before netviewd is started,
or am I way off the target?
I rarely use Web, but I did some time ago (still, that was before the
restart).
If netviewd opens maps in RW always, how can I use RW for X sessions?
Once again, sorry for this low level discussion, but I am trying to find
a way to have answers to most of the questions others will ask me...
Have a nice day, and many thanks to Paul and Dejan.

Vladan,
Just to make sure you understand what is happening, netviewd actually
opens its own map(read-write). This is so that if a map
is not open, the web clients can still function. Basically netviewd
holds a copy of the map in a virtual frame buffer so that it can be
viewed via the web service.
And don't worry, most everybody here had a large learning curve when
they first started with NetView. I know I did!

Hi all,
I have restarted all the daemons, netviewd also. You can see the output
od the ovtstaus bellow for netviewd, and the map is RO.
object manager name: netviewd
behavior: OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: RUNNING
PID: 17072
last message: Initialization complete, opened map '063' as
Read-Write.
exit status: -
But netview -dconsole worked fine. I do not know hows that possible,
since I am the only one who works on the machine. Probably, this is the
reason I did not try it, after all I have restarted all the daemons.
Many thanks to Paul and James for the tips, I am on a steep learning
curve (I hope that this is not at your expence).
Have a nice day,

All the daemons? Even netviewd? If he's running, stop him.
