thank you Christopher for your help. do you know what the table is that I need to audit to check for the link between the filters and the SVT? what i currently am able to do, is list ALL filters in dev studio, and find the ones that have the SVT_ID in the title of the filter, which implies they are related, I then disable them.
i actually managed to get the SVT to stop attaching today by going into the SLM_Category table, and changing the unique-identifier of that SVT and clicking SAVE. it was the only operation that was able to succeed on that data record in the table, so it must have got corrupted somehow, and it could no longer be indexed or something. I am hoping i have not broken something by doing this, i.e. do I now have orphaned components of an SVT due to me changing the unique ID of the SVT... (it is the ID that looks like "SLGAA5V0GH222ALYZQRGACAY6JBP43") I feel like I have been in Remedy hell all weekend on this, or at least SLM hell. In my server group configuration, i have 2 servers. one is completely out of the server group and does not even exist in the server-rankings table. the other server holds ALL the roles in the ranking table as it is currently the only SG member. do you think i need to disable the SLM function from one of these servers? what if i delete the SLM role from the SG, does that mean No server will run them in the SG, leaving the admin server to run them that is NOT in the SG? How do I disable the SLM process running on one of the server? Is it just by the rankings role? cheers dan _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
