In an offline communication (Thank you, Mark!) I was informed that NetView has an initialization parm to override the /usr/lpp/... path. The info I was given during a year ago during the ESP and again earlier this week was flat out wrong. IBM's NetView folks usually know their product very well. This laps is very out of character. I'm a bit irritated that I believed the misstatement. I would have install the new release many months ago had I known this.
