Depends on the information you were most interested in. Simply, you could
execute a ovtopodump if you only wanted 'Selection Names'. If you wanted
more you would need to write an application to connect with Ovw to dump
objects and symbols.
I have written numerous apps that search the Ovw DB, you only need to get
all submaps and then traverse each object in the submap and then to symbols,
etc. The man pages and Programmers Reference are great sources of info.
Best of luck,

Subject: [nv-l] dump devices script?
Hi list,
I've been searching around to see if there is a script available to dump the
contents of the object db to a flat file to save me starting from scratch?
I need to filter to only include switches/routers (and maybe servers one
day) and only select a few fields for each device.
If anyone has a script that is post-able (directly if necessary), it would
be appreciated. If not, I'm working on the basis that parsing the output
from ovobjprint is the best approach (no RIM / sql database I'm
afraid) - does anyone have a different view?
Any pointers much appreciated
Thanks
K
