Re: [nv-l] Read-Write Map Unavailable

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

netviewd always gets the map read-write unless you take it away from him.
The ovstatus shows it's no mystery who has it.
If you want to take the read-write map away from him, then start the GUI
with
      netview -d console

But if there are users on the web client, this will boot them off and they
will have to log back in.  They get whatever map netviewd has

Every time I open the NetView GUI, using nv6000, I get a read-only map. I
have killed all processes, booted all users, and even re-booted the box.
Map still comes up read-only. When doing an ovstatus immediately following
a re-boot, I get the following:

 object manager name: netviewd
 behavior:            OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
 state:               RUNNING
 PID:                 23478
 last message:        Initialization complete, opened map 'default' as
Read-Write.
 exit status:         -

How can I find out what's opening the Read-Write map and how can I stop it?

Thank you,
