Thanks for the help on this - the mapadmin -f command got rid of the reference to the "orphan" map - the objects still refer to being on 3 maps so I'll run ovmapcount -a and ovtopofix to try and get some sanity in the databases.
Hopefully this will fix the problem for good....
Thanks again for the help.

Gavin, first make a good backup of /usr/OV/databases/openview ! Then try: mapadmin -f 2004_04_21_prod and if this fails: mapadmin -r 2004_04_21_prod Oliver

| Re: [nv-l] Strange Map problems |
| Oliver Thanks for the response. Yes, I'm aware that I'd still have two maps left and I do normally delete the objects from both maps, my problem is this pesky 3rd map that I can't get rid of or access. It seems to be orphaned - Ive posted another email with the results of an ovmapcount -cl which has further diagnostics - it seems to think the 2004_04_21 map is a non-local map (event though there is only one Netview host) and it cannot open it to check. The ovwls and ovwperms output is as follows - it doesn't make much sense to me... NV Prod[koguxap6] ROOT >ovwls
-rw-r--r-- root system Production
-rw-rw-rw- root system default Map location for distributed client machines.
Map Name Hostname
-------- --------
Production koguxap6
2004_04_21_prod koguxap6
default koguxap6
NV Prod[koguxap6] ROOT >ovwperms -l 2004_04_21_prod
ERROR: No such map "2004_04_21_prod" Map location for distributed client machines.
Map Name Hostname
-------- --------
Production koguxap6
2004_04_21_prod koguxap6
default koguxap6
NV Prod[koguxap6] ROOT >

Gavin,
don't forget that even after deleting the map "2004_04_21_prod" you still have 2 maps: "default" and "Production".
So you have the delete the objects from both maps.
Check them both with
ovmapdump -m default | grep <YourDeletedObject>
ovmapdump -m Production | grep <YourDeletedObject>
For the "2004_04_21_prod problem:
What is the output of "ovwls"?
Are you able to change the "lost" permissions with "ovwperms"? (Check the man pages on this commands).

mapadmin -l does not show the invalid map - it only shows the Production and netview maps.

Check out the mapadmin command maybe that can help you get rid of it.

| [nv-l] Strange Map problems |
|
I originally had 3 maps for my production Netview system which were essentially copies of each other. These were named :
1) default
2) Production - this is the "real" map
3) 2004_04_21_prod - a backup taken during some changes
I tried to delete the 2004_04_21_prod map but Netview died halfway through the process (after a very long time with the CPU at 100%).
Now when I select the File | Delete Map option I see the 3 maps in the list box but the 2004_04_21_prod map has the permission set to "unknown" and has a comment "Non-local map (koguxap6)" and the Delete button does not enable when this map is selected. (koguxap6 is the host on which Netview is running).
If I delete an object from the default and Production maps it remains in the database with a map count of 1 (presumably the 2004_04_21_prod map) and I can't get rid of it.
Is there any way I can get rid of this oddball map and therefore get rid of the deleted objects from the database as I suspect this is causing anomolous behaviour?
Cheers - Gavin Newman
