OK suspected as much.

Followed the procedure for retiring a backend where I do not have access to
the old backend.

Ie Deleted all capture cards, not just on host.

Readded and reset the input sources.


Delected all Storage directories and readded. But still getting the same
error.

I tried running the following query 

mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg -e "SELECT * FROM storagegroup WHERE hostname
LIKE '%potter-myth%';"

and I can see that there are still storage groups defined for the old
hostname!!
