Does anyone know how to actually use the integration as it now stands? I own NetViz and Spectrum. The integration guide is not very clear, or I'm missing something.

By the time CA acquired Concord, NetViz already in Concord's basket... Sometime in March 2005, NetViz sent their Engineer to Aprisma Head Quarter-Portsmouth, New Hampshire, or so called "Spectrum Business Unit", to learn "The Integration". A few months before CA's acquisition. "CA has stopped developing for future Netviz" -- In CA's term is "Stabilized". I was hoping, before that time, NetViz would be a complementary feature for Circuit Management, since it offers a very flexible way to populate Circuit Management informations. But then, Yes, I agree.., "Sadly" CA stopped developing for future NetViz :( In my very opinion, NetViz would be good if CA improves OneClick-NetViz in Graphics, icons, replace the Database into MySQL. I just remember the time when SPECTRUM hired PixelMEDIA, sometime in 2003, to work on The User Interface Design, for icons, appearances, etc. It improved Spectrum Look-and-Feel, until today... If CA do the same thing to OneClick-NetViz, I believe we are going to have a nice and Topology views from every angle..., because it's 3D topology. We don't have to collapse our network in a cluttered Network Container. We can also pin-point the right Alarmed Model faster visually. Don't have to see Rolling-Up alarm to Container anymore.... ...And we could add Passive Device into Topology.... CMIIW, Thank you.

Sadly, from what I've heard CA has stopped developing for future Netviz Integrations (it works only until version 8.1 of Spectrum) but the information remains, and I think you can download the Netviz Integration software from supportconnect. In the meantime, find attached the "Netviz Spectrum Adapter User's Guide" so you can have an idea of how this integration can take place and what can you do with it. Also, I have the eHealth Netviz Adapter User's Guide, if u want it, please let me know, and I can send it to you. Hope it helps, Best Regards, Eng.
