Rajesh,
It looks like you the condition (pObjectIdList->count > 0) is returning
false for some of the systems because there are no matches for the
conditions you are searching for (field EServer_sysName = workstationname
?). This may be due to a hidden character in the field data (space),
character case, etc. so I would double check the field values in the DB.
Based on the documentation for OVwDBListObjectsByFieldValue, if no match
was found that the OVwObjectIdList will contain no object IDs and still be
considered successful.
I'm not sure if this could help you, but maybe you could achieve what you
need by using the location.conf file or a smartset.

Jane,
Sorry I did not mention anything in the subject line of the mail
earlier.
The earlier mail which I sent in html format failed to reach nv-list
because it was 60 KB and I had to switch to plain text format.
In the scenario I am using there will be certain systems with our SNMP
MIB running on them. We need display them on the console using our own
submap representation. The submap is created perfectly but some of its
components fail to add.
The problem is that
1. Some systems are not getting added to the submap. They fail to add
when pObjectIdList->count > 0 is false.
2.I want to know why the condition (pObjectIdList->count > 0) is
becoming false for some systems (ie pObjectIdList->count is 0 instead of
being 1).
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
Perhaps you might explain a bit at a higher level, what you are trying
to achieve? Most people who use NetView do not need to resort to
programming with the APIs. Perhaps there is an easier way of achieving
what you want??
Cheers,
Jane
