[nv-l] Test menu grayed out for object in GUI

["Zoeckler, Eric A." <Eric.Zoeckler@us.ngrid.com>]

V 7.1.4 AIX 5.2

Anyone seen this?  I have several objects of symbol type "File System".  That is, server objects.  When I right click and go to Test the selections for ping, demand poll, etc are all grayed out.  Other similar objects do not have this problem.  The difference I have found can be seen when I right-click the object and go to Edit, Description where I find that the problem object has IP Status-Unknown whereas the others have IP Status-Normal.  When I delete and re-add the object the problem no longer exists.  The question is, why or how did this object get this way?  Maybe the server changed its IP address?
