There is an undocumented (read "DANGEROUS") option to ovwdbdmap:
ovwdbdmap -d <Object ID>

Before you use it, make sure you call support and backup all of
/usr/OV/databases AFTER ovstop has completed.  For backup, use cpio or
pax since there are some sparse files that tar will not be able to
restore.
