    Folks,

    I am trying to install Glance Plus (Version C.04.60.000) on a P5 system with AIX 6.1. Every time I try to run the command
    #glance

    I get the following error:
    Glance fatal error.
    == Fatal Nums Error == $Header:$ ==
    User: root Date: Fri Aug 21 09:20:01
    File: /crm/numsVob/aix/4.3/aixnums.C Line: 1106 Product id: Glance
    System: <hostname>
    Errno: 3 (No such process)

    Version 6 not supported.
    == End of Error Msg =============================

    gpm does not work either.

    Here is some info from the host that might be of any help:
    1. prtconf | more
    System Model: IBM,9131-52A
    Processor Type: PowerPC_POWER5
    Processor Implementation Mode: POWER 5
    Processor Version: PV_5_2
    Number Of Processors: 2
    Processor Clock Speed: 1896 MHz
    CPU Type: 64-bit
    Kernel Type: 64-bit
    Memory Size: 3936 MB
    Good Memory Size: 3936 MB
    Platform Firmware level: SF235_160
    Firmware Version: IBM,SF235_160

    I tried it on two different hosts with following oslevels :

    6100-02-02-0849
    6100-03-01-0921

    and it gave me the same error. The same version of Glance Plus was working fine with AIX 5.3.

    Is there a new version of HP Glance Plus for AIX 6.1?

    Thanks in advance.

    Guys,

    I think, I have found the answer. There is a new version of AIX Glance Plus v4.72 which I believe should be used. I just looked that up on the HP's website. But any comments on this would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    R.

    Got the same problem with OpenView agents. Even went so far as to patch their installation scripts and re-package it. The message:

    Version 6 not supported.

    is actually embedded in their binaries (coda, I think), so HP has to fix it.
    We also discovered that OpenView does not support GPFS filesystems. Putting a GPFS filesystem in the alarmdef causes alarmgen to die with an error. HP says the 5.0 release won't support it either, but they are working on it.
