Hello,
I'm using a location.conf file and now I'm having the same problems (shadowed
objects) (Netview 6.0.1 AIX 4.3.3).
Is there an APAR for this problem and if so, can someone give me the number,
or do I call support ?
Kind regards,
Helen

Problem Details

Abstract:
TivWeb: Rediscovery and shadowed objects
.
System Type: 7026-H70
System Model: RS6000

Operating System: AIX 4.3
Product Group: NetView for UNIX
Fileset or Version: 6.0.1
.
Environment:
AIX NetView Server with no MLM/Clients
.
Problem Description:
We had discovered and manually removed objects from the root map to
locations that we had created both manually and with the location.conf
file. Everything was running OK and then I was told that discovery had
stopped. I performed a "resolve database consistencies" from serversetup
and when that was completed I reopened the map. NetView is now
rediscovering the objects I have already placed in other containers and
placing them on the root map. The objects that were already there now
all have shadows. I have DB backups from every day for the last 2 weeks
if that will help. I am not at permanent phone number so e-mail is the
best option today. Thanks.

Snet CC the following email:
At this point your best bet may be to go ahead and restore the DB.
That way when the DB maintenance is run again we can capture
the output of the commands to a file so we can see exactly what
they are doing. Another tech here tried it and did see some strange
happenings, but to associate it with PMR we really need to get your
outputs. What commands did you run for the DB maintenance?
Get back with me when you get a chance and let me know if this
will work for you!
Waiting for reply

CC restored the DB and did the DB maint again and everything appears OK
this time, CC agreed to close the call and will reopen if neccessary.
Closing per CC, reopen if necc.

CC requested call be reopened as the problem has resurfaced. CC is
sending in his DB, so we can see what is happening. Checking DB and
researching.
Looking at CC's DB

After looking at the CCs DB, I was able to see that the object was in
both locations. It was also the same object
(oid 2792). I was able to recreate it with the following scenario:
Clear the databases and create a location.conf file with a nested
location. Once the map is drawn and the object is properly placed in the
location defined in the location.conf file. In the Upperlevel location,
create another location, and create a location in that location. Then
cut a paste from the its original location and place it in the lowest
level location that was created manually. Wait for the discovery poll(I
had to wait overnight) and the object will reappear in the original
location. Both objects will be in the application plane and point to the
same object in the database.
The database that I created is on support. You will able to see the
object in both locations and the Object information will point to the
same object in the database. I also included the location.conf file I
used to create the original locations in the tar file. APAR needs to be
written. Passing to Roy on the backend.
