No.  Synchronization is the process by which ipmap makes the map database match 
the topology database and ipmap can only be
run attached to ovw, the end-user GUI.

In My Humble Opinion, 8 maps is too many but that is your choice to make.   You 
must balance the desire for multiple maps
with the effort it takes to maintain them.

Subject:  Deleting objects from all maps





Hi,

I have to administrate 8 Netview maps. After deleting an object with
ovtopofix, for synchronizing I must open all maps with read-write
permission.
Is there an option to do the synchronisation with one step ?
