Add system to SIM

Benjamin Crill — Wed, 28 Jun 2006 13:32:48 GMT

I have automatic discovery setup to detect servers on a certain subnet. There are about 4 consecutive addresses that it is not picking up. If I try to add it manually it states that " * A system already exists with the IP Address you provided. Please specify a unique IP address."

SIM connects to a SQL 2000 database on the backend. Anybody run into this problem before?

Is the view being filtered?
Check that all device types are being seen, this may be just an unknown device.

There isn't filtering. I am clicking on the ALL SYSTEMS and it does not about 3 servers in the range that I have set up for the automatic discovery.

Do these system have a firewall?

Yes they do have a firewall but there are other servers as well with a firewall that are being detected. These 3 servers that are not showing up are 3 of 6 blade servers in the same chassis. The other 3 servers that bookend them are being detected and displaying correctly in SIM.
