This fix is to resolve lnmtopod core dumps for Nways Manager for AIX v1.2. It will run on base Nways Manager for AIX v1.2 (cml.base 3.3), or with PTF U453804 or PTF U456595. After you ftp or copy this file (lnmtopod.Z) to the /usr/CML/bin directory, follow these steps to install: 1) exit all NetView for AIX end-user interface sessions. 2) /usr/OV/bin/ovstop cmld 3) cd /usr/CML/bin 4) mv lnmtopod lnmtopod.orig 5) uncompress lnmtopod.Z 6) chmod 500 lnmtopod 7) chown bin.bin lnmtopod 8) /usr/OV/bin/ovstart cmld 9) nv6000 (to restart the end-user interface)
