Larry,
I'm sorry but IBM will not allow me to accept problem data files from users
either directly or off the list. You will need to open a problem to
NetView Level 2 and get them involved. That is why they are there. If
they cannot answer your question or resolve things for you, then it will
get routed to me.
I'm just baffled why, if you had AIX, and the new corporate standard is
SuSE, why you would switch to Windows.
NetView 7.1.5 installs on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, 32 or 64-bit
kernel on Intel. Some of our biggest customers have it. I'm running the
32-bit version myself in my office.
You could migrate all of your customizations from AIX to SuSE. Unlike
Windows, all the UNIX platforms are interchangeable, with the exception of
some minor differences for Linux on OS 390. The toughest thing about
NetView on SuSE Linux is SuSE Linux itself -- learning how to install
maintenance, figuring out what rpms you need and so. The NetView code all
works the same way as it does on AIX or Solaris. the code base is the
same; it's just linked with platform specific libraries.

James,
It's just political.. Company has new standard as SuSe Linux.. So my battle
continues with management for deviation.. But.. You know Corporate..
Anyway.. I ran into another issue..
When i did mib2trap for CPQ-HLTH-MIB, it did generate .cds,.oid and .baroc
file. But not all classes (oid's) which are in .cds file are in .OID file.
This reason i missed a trap to forward to TEC. Please see attached .cds,
oid & Mib. Is this normal? How do I add manually in .oid file.
OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.232. generic 6 and specific is 6027
Ex: cpqHe3PostError Exists in .cds file but Does not in .oid file..
Thanks as usual.
Larry

Well, on Windows you would have to configure the trapfrwd daemon to forward
traps to your AIX machine, and then configure that to send to TEC using a
ruleset. If you already had the AIX to TEC link working, then yes, it
probably would have been easier just to forward the traps from Windows to
AIX.
But that all begs the question, "Why on earth would someone who has a
working NetView on an AIX system move to Windows?" Not only is the effort
high, it's like trading in your SUV for a subcompact. It's fine if you
want to save gas (or cost) but you cannot tow nearly as much with the
subcompact. Anyone who needed the robustness and versatility of NetView on
AIX will find the Windows version very constraining.
