Ok, Thanks. By the way where are the smartsets kept as far as the database?

You will lose the arrangements you have made, but not the smartset definitions,
so they will be repopulated when the nodes are rediscovered. Regarding network
names, I believe, on Netview for NT, that if you provide a file called
\etc\networks
it will use that to name the subnets. Segments (underneath the subnets) will be
called Segment1, Segment2, etc as before if that's what you really mean.
I generally count on having to rediscover the network several times before I
am through with an implementation, so I make a point of not investing too
heavily
in customization until I'm happy with the discovery. Then I think about the day
when I might have to do it again, and decide not to cut and paste it too deeply.
Then I take a good backup of the map database under /usr/OV/databases/openview
in case of corruption. That way I can restore to that point and let it sync up.
Cordially,

Hello,
I need to delete and rediscovery my network. I have created custom smartsets and
submaps under them. If I reset the database (with preserve smartsets checked)
will all my customizations disappear anyway?
Some of my customizations include the naming by hand of dozens of network
segments.
