https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hp-sim-shows-ip-address/m-p/4556749#M39803 Hi,<BR /><BR />I am running SIMS 5.3. My DL 380 with Windows 2008 R2 shows IP address instead of its hostname (on the servers list) like the rest. How can I resolve this? Thanks in advance.<BR /><BR /> Wed, 30 Dec 2009 16:03:43 GMT phathuynh27 2009-12-30T16:03:43Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hp-sim-shows-ip-address/m-p/4556749#M39803 Hi,<BR /><BR />I am running SIMS 5.3.
