HP SIM Specific Devices not Discovered

Hi, this is a very odd problem.
I have SIM 5.2 running with 500+ discovered devices working fine.
However there are 3 servers that just will not add, regardless of the method I use. Both servers are Supermicros, running w2k3 sp2. SIM is installed on a domain controller, the 3 servers are members of that domain. wbem/wmi, snmp and ssh all configured and working fine.

When I try to discover the servers, and leave it for a few minutes, all appears to be ok; running mxnode -ln shows the servers have been discovered.
However, they never show up in the list of devices in the SIM browser. If I restart the SIM service, the devices dissappear from the list generated by mxnode -ln.

On closer investigation, the devices are not at any point added to the 'devices' table of the sim database.
I've looked at various simlar posts to do with database permissions etc, but as I can add other devices (including ones that dont exist) without any issues it can't be permissions related.

If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance :-)

What setting do you have for Discovery Filters?

Hi David,

No discovery filters at all, the 'enable discovery filters' checkbox is unchecked.
