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

[Francois Le Hir <flehir@ca.ibm.com>]

having an open map continuously is necessary for the discovery and update
of the network to continue....
It's not very secure and practical to keep the GUI opened (unless of course
you have operators watching the screen) so netviewd is useful ... event if
you are not using the web console.

If you aren't using the web console then there is no reason to run
netviewd.

Ok, but this just started this week. We were always able to run with just
the nv6000 command previously. Do I need to disable the web console then to
stop this?

I stand corrected.  It is
     netview -dconsole

FYI - I think dconsole is all one word (no space)  ...  netview -dconsole

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,
