That's not a valid test. That will happen on any Windows system, even one where netmon starts normally. The OVsInitComplete fails because the process was not started by ovspmd, the process which normally starts all the daemons by the command "ovstart". If ovspmd does not the start the daemon but you do instead, then there is no connection between them and the OVsInitComplete fails as a result.

I'm not certain what you expect to gain by posting this here. If you have rebooted and netmon still fails to start, then it is unlikely that another user can help you. That's why I sent you to Support. You said you were having some unspecified sort of memory problems with this box before the trouble started. Did you tell Support about those?

I made some snmp get in my snmp and it returns positive results to me. Yesterday we have problems of memory with this server, and today the netmon doesn´t start. Very strange this situation, but i will call the IBM Support.

tks!

Reboot. If that doesn't work, call Support.

If my memory serves me, that would mean that netmon is trying to open the socket reserved for him in <windows_path>/etc/services, and Windows won't do it, giving him a bad return code. So netmon cannot communicate with anyone.

How do you know your SNMP works fine?
