How to Start and Stop the OpenView Platform Adapter

The NerveCenter component that allows you to integrate NerveCenter with IBM NetView for AIX is known as the OpenView Platform Adapter. Following a typical installation of the NerveCenter OpenView Platform Adapter component, NerveCenter enabled the OpenView Platform Adapter to run automatically as a service of NetView.

Therefore, whenever you start NetView services by typing ovstart, the NerveCenter OpenView Platform Adapter will automatically start with any other NetView services.

In the same way, typing ovstop stops all NetView services, including the NerveCenter OpenView Platform Adapter.

If you want to start only the NerveCenter OpenView Platform Adapter, you can type at the command line:


   ovstart ovpa

If you want to stop only the NerveCenter OpenView Platform Adapter, you can type at the command line:


   ovstop ovpa
