Mike, This is a known issue with some versions of the CMDB... There are a couple of little gotcha's in the way that the CMDB Class Manager swaps data with the SHR:SchemaNames that I've stumbled across so far. If you have a look at Support Web Article KM-000000023856, this should give you a fix for this corruption of SHR:SchemaNames class heirarchy data issue... What you'll also need to do is retrace some of your steps and check all of the entries in SHR:SchemaNames. Any entry for a Class where 'ClassID 01' != "BMC_ASSETBASE" is going to be suspicious (with the exception of the Relationship classes and maybe one or two others from memory). I've had to do a clean up this on one or two systems before, so let me know if you need further advice. Regards Chris.
