Brian,
          I also had a problem with ovtopofix running long. I had to open a
PMR. They sent me fix IY50663. You should look at getting FixPak1 if you
haven't already.

We have run into an issue here with ovtopofix - it s taking a long time
to complete (several hours).  In the past it has only taken 20 minutes
or so to run completely.  We have has an issue where interfaces get
added and deleted by netmon recently, but only on 4 devices that I am
aware of.

Has anyone seen behaviour like this?  And does anyone have any ideas on
how to speed this up?  We are running NetView 7.1.4, with the topology
databases stored on the Netview server, not in an RDBMS.

Thanks,

Brian
