Hi Chris,
Are you excluding discovery of this node via a seedfile? It seems like the
information you have might indicated that it was excluded by OID.
Alternatively,
are you sure there is nothing remaining in the object database,
topology database, or map database. Can check using the following:-
1. ( as you indicated ) ovobjprint -s rtr01-002.localfed.rins.net
2. ovtopodump -rl rtr01-002.localfed.rins.net
3. ovmapdump -m <map> | grep rtr01-002
Point 3 would need to be done for each of the maps existing for the
Netview server.
