Dear list,

Have searched the archive but not found the solution, need your help. 

When I add new device into Netview, always get the error message 

"ERROR: Could not add node 'hostname' to topology: Object marked new
already exists"

I tried several times with the method I use before (which worked for
most of these kinds of problem), create a smartset with only this device
in it and delete it. The device is then neither locate from the GUI nor
from the command: "ovobjprint | grep hostname". After that re-discover
it through putting it in the netmon.seed. Nothing happened for the whole
weekend. Using loadhosts command then get the above error. After the
loadhosts command, issue "ovobjprint | grep hostname" and get the
following:

        10              Selection Name                  "hostname"
                11              IP Hostname
"hostname"

Only this, no Ip address etc. cannot locate through GUI.

Can you give any hint?
