Yes.  The NetView database contains information
about the NetView box itself.  It "knows" its own name and
address and where the maps are located.  If you move a backup to another
machine, then all that has to be changed before the GUI will come up or the
daemon configuration can be modified.  And that's what reset_ci does.  It
resets the NetView host specific info in the database to the machine one which
they now reside. 
Wanna
see how it works?  It's a script and you can trace it.

I am
transferring Netview database from one server to another server (different IP
addresses and hostnames) using nvhotbackup. Do I need to run reset_ci on the
server I am restoring on? Thanks. 
 
Cheers
