hum, sounds like a cheap dirty thing to me.. the concepts guide mumbles about the chfarm command many a time, about removing servers, but fails to mention how.. although i get the drift you're meant to actually run it on the dodgy server failing that could you not setup a new server with the same name, if you know it? Andrew --o-- >>> brian.lilley@xxxxxxxx 09/09/04 16:08:40 >>> Hi Andrew, Thanks for your response, Its a dev farm which is accessed by every man and his dog and his dogs friends and his dogs friends friends. Which means anyone could've added it and removed it in any form they chose. It doesn't appear in the CMC. Am about to try dsverify.. will report on results.. cheers, Brian -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Andrew Rogers Sent: 09 September 2004 15:43 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: data store inconsistency and dscheck Is it in the CMC? Can you not remove it from there? What happened to the server? Andrew --o-- >>> brian.lilley@xxxxxxxx 09/09/04 15:06:20 >>> Hi all, I have a server object referenced in the 'Servers' Group object in my Datastore. The server object it refers to no longer exists (or at least I don't think it does, short of searching every object in dsview.exe (why on earth does dsview lack any kind of functionality at all(I just want to search for something))). How on earth do I get the DataStore to get rid of this ref. At present, we have unattended installs failing halfway through and I'm not sure if this is because the server is trying to be added into the default Servers Group object (which has the orphaned server object in)!!
