Discovery end with with statu complete (sucess with wbem) but why ssh not working ?

Can someone check if this normal ?

Minor: The system cannot be logged in using SSH protocol; check
credentials or check the settings in the SSH configuration file

Are you experiencing root password lock-out ?

its not about account lock out.

Try to setup password with last character "@" and check if you can discovery host via wbem

What is the hardware type ? if it's a Gen8 or newer you should use AMS. Just a sidenote...

I always use a copy of the root user, like hpsim_discovery just to be clear and not to have discovery issues if someone changes the root password. Is it allowed to use root for SSH ?
