Hello Everyone.

NetView 7.1.4 (FixPack1) on AIX 5.2 (ML2)

Recently I have seen the following problem reported when running
ovmapcount -a after a backup job.
Notice the "Exists count current = 2 ..." line the this excerpt from my log
file:

## START LOG FILE SECTION ##
    ovmapcount -a at Tue May  4 22:07:28 CDT 2004
    Loading maps from database.
    Determing maps that might exist on other client machine.
    Maps found on local server machine.
        default
    Maps existing on client machines.
        No maps found.
    Checking Symbol List fields.
    Loading objects from database.
    44654 objects in object database.
    Checking OVW Maps Exists and OVW Maps Managed counts.
    [17512] Object 27618708:  Exists count  current = 2     correct = 1

    ovtopofix -a at Tue May  4 22:11:00 CDT 2004
            Updating global topology information (objid = 249) ......
## END LOG FILE SECTION ##

This occurred in 7.1.3 and now under 7.1.4 (w/ FixPack1).  In every case so
far, the object has been a Location.

I delete the object with "ovwdbdmap -d object number" and then after a few
days another object is reported after another backup.

I run ovmapcount and ovtopofix every weeknight after the backup. On Sunday
morning, I run the ovmapcount, ovtopofix and then the
nvTurboDatabase space/speed compression. nvTurboDatabase "pag" file settings
are sufficient for the size of the value_info.pag,
obj_info.pag and name_info.pag files.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
