Hi list,  I recently upgraded from NetView 7.1.1 to 7.1.4 fp2 on AIX.  (I
know fp3 is available but it has not been out long enough).  Anyhow my map
synchronization time is at least 10x greater than it was previously.  I
have about 35,000 objects in my database.  I found a technote on IBM's
website (one of those lucky times that it was actually up!) that listed
some ways to help improve map sync time.  One of those items was to look
for nonstandard objects in the database by running 'ovtopofix -m'.  However
it did not tell you what to do with those nonstandard items.  Below is
partial listing of the output from ovtopofix -m:

NONSTANDARD 2359 Interface object for MS2006RTR:to050634 not in Topology
NONSTANDARD 2473 Interface object for MS2054RTR:ct150722 not in Topology
NONSTANDARD 2542 Interface object for LA4078RTR:ct1159764 not in Topology

not in
 Topology
NONSTANDARD 2509 Interface object for LA4044RTR:ct1166481 not in Topology

Do I just delete these objects from the database?  If so what is the
preferred mechanism for doing so?

An hour now and my map still hasn't sync'd ...
