Stopping and Restarting the Manager
Application

Stopping the Manager

Stopping the manager consists of:

1.

Exiting the manager's graphical network map and user interface, and

2.

Optionally stopping the manager's background processes.

To exit from the network map and interface (ovw), select Exit in the map's
File

menu.

If you want the manager to continuously collect data and monitor changes
even when the map and interface are not up (that is, even if you exit from
ovw), do step 1 and not step 2. The background processes—netmon, trapd,
ovwdb, ovtopmd, and snmpCollect—will continue to run and you need only
run /opt/OV/bin/ovw to return to the map and interface. For more
information on these background processes, refer to the HP OpenView
Network Node Manager Reference

manual or read the man page for the

process.

If you want to stop the background processes, use the command /opt/OV/
bin/ovstop

. Using ovstop without arguments stops all of the

processes—netmon, trapd, ovwdb, ovtopmd, and snmpCollect—in the
correct order.
