Thread-topic: [NV-L] Smartset gets deleted automatically
Thanks James,

nvUil L doesn't list the name UPS

The SmartSets named UPS gets deleted and all other SmartSets created have no 
issues.  I created "UPS" three times and noticed that it gets deleted after few 
days. Once I noticed that after an ovtotopfix -a, this SmartSets got deleted 

Do you think an issue with the NAME?- "UPS".  I have created another SmartSets 
with same criteria and that exists! 

Best regards,
Anvaj

Subject: Re: [NV-L] Smartset gets deleted automatically

It's a strange problem all right, because NetView has no method of deleting 
smartsets automatically so far as I know, short of clearing the databases or 
de-installing the product. They only get deleted when you use the clear 
databases facility with the "do not save customizations" option. They can also 
be deleted with nvUtil manually but that is all. Since there is no automatic 
deletion mechanism, there is no mechanism to trace.

Do an "nvUtil L" and get a list of all your smartsets, or "nvUtil G" to get a 
list with their descriptions and rules. Are you sure the "UPS" one is gone?
Or is it there and just empty? "nvUtil l UPS" with a lower case letter "l" will 
list the members.

What is the criteria for membership in UPS? Could it be that the node 
attributes in the database are getting changed so that nodes lose membership? 

For example, if part of the criteria is "isSNMPSupported" and the community 
name gets changed so that the node doesn't respond during a config check, then 
netmon will change that database attribute to FALSE and that node will no 
longer be considered part of the smartset.

[NV-L] Smartset gets deleted automatically






NetView 7.1.4 -FP04 on RH3 

I am facing a strange problem of SMARTSETS named "UPS" get deleted
automatically after some days from Netview

Request your suggestions on the possible cause of the problem? And how
will I trace the smartest related activities?

Best regards,
Anvaj
