Jeff I believe I have a similar problem with a redundant path hot-standy
config as well. I have noticed that if the path switches for whatever
reason then Netview will pickup the standby interface. We recently
reconfigured this particular path and I now have the standby router showing
with only one interface connected... which in reality is the way it is.
As a side note I am also finding that putting all the interface addresses
in the seed file isn't necessary and can cause some confusion with netview.
I'm starting to clean my up and just leaving the primary ethernet address
for all my routers. Any other comments on this??

Subject: [NV-L] segment Icons disappearing
On one of my backup netview servers, I have two cisco 7513's with several
serial interface. One router has the active serial and one has a backup
that
is administratively shut down, both serials have the same IP. The problem
is
that the IP segment icon will only draw a line to one router and some times
it the router with the administratively downed interface. I have done
demand
polls on both routers in various order, have deleted the router interfaces,
ran ovtopofix -a, cleared the arp-cache on the routers etc. trying to
resolve a two way connection between the routers and the IP icon. Has
anyone
else had this problem with routers with mirror interfaces? Any suggestions?
I am running NetView 5.1.1. with a seedfile and all the router interfaces
are listed, and new node discovery is turned on.
My primary Netview server has resolved the connections, not sure how. So, I
was thinking of copying over the databases to the backup server to resolve
the inconsistences. I believe this is possible, but can some explain which
databases should be copied and the proper sequence so, I don't dork it up
worse.
Much Thanks,
