Yes, if I run ovobjprint -s hostname OBJECT ID # 142 shows the following:
(which is correct)
142 IP Subnet Mask "255.255.255.0"
-- The --> TopM Interface List had 255.255.240.0 ..Which was
automatically populated.
My netmon.trace file only has one entry that has nothing to do with the
cisco box.
Also I ran demand poll and it changed the icon from blue to green but thats
when
I noticed it was on the wrong subnet. Since then Ive tried to delete object
but it still shows up when I run the ovobjprint command.
How do you completely remove an object once it has been added to the
database?

I would have not have tried to do any manual adding but the cisco switches
had been running
for aprox. one week without Netview discoverying them. I kinda had no
choice.

Ill try to remove it ENTIRELY from the Database then add it to the seed
file
and see if a demand poll will force an update.
