For some of the servers we still have valid images, other's I can't explain.
For example:
169.254.17.123
169.254.3.251

Not only do we use hostnames instead of IP addresses, these are APIPA addresses.

[Veritas-bu] Purging hosts from Symantec OpsCenter

2010-04-07 Thread nez

We've been running Symantec OpsCenter for some time now and we see dead 
clients in OpsCenter.

We have 96 unique clients, OpsCenter however shows 140 unique clients. Most 
of the false clients are old clients, servers which we've deleted for some 
time now, some are existing clients but with the domain suffix added to the 
hostname.

In OpsCenter I can easily recognise them when I go to:
Monitor  Hosts  Client
the dead clients have the value - in OS Type and Hardware

All these clients have been properly removed from policies and host properties 
in the NetBackup Java Administration Console. There is no trace of them there, 
but they appear to remain forever in OpsCenter which is sabotaging our reports 
as filtering hosts in reports is becoming more time consuming.

Is there a way to remove dead clients from OpsCenter?

P.S: Examples of affected reports are the Client Dashboard Summary and the 
RPO report.

Do you still have valid images in your catalog for those clients?
