Stopping the Manager

Stopping the manager consists of:
1.
2.
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.
