Okay Here is the situation
We had to change the hostname of an item in NetView. When we edited the
hostname in the hosts file, we ran a demand poll, which usually updates
the selection name and label. It didn't work. We then deleted the
object from all submaps, and tried to re-add it using loadhosts. Only
problem is, it never deleted it from the object database. Instead, I
fouind an object with REMOVED:10.10.10.10 (not the real IP) in the
database.
We don't want to run ovtopofix, etc., everytime we do stuff like this.
Is there a way to clean these items out of the object database so that
we can readd them.
Also, has anyone had problems getting a demand poll to change the name
when a new hostname has been resolved for a device.
Thanks
