3 mxinventory.exe's in Task Manager

[MC Murphy]

This is on SIM 5.3 SP1 on Windows Server 2003. Looking in Task Manager to see why it performs badly, I see 3 instances of mxinventory.exe. Is this to be expected, or is this a problem?

This is a problem. It happens rarely. To resolve this, stop HPSIM service and kill all the mxinventory instance from Task manager if it doesn't close on itself. Once every thing is closed (mxdtf, mxdomainmgr & mxinventory), you can start HPSIM service and it should work properly.
