Discover one server and another disappears

[Jeff Rutherford]

Interesting problem
I have two systems with the names a01nd1 and a01cL1.

When I manually discover A01CL1 the other one dissappears and if I manually discover A01ND1 to put it back then A01CL1 dissappears.

there are other sets like that, what could be causing it? They a part of a cluster but there are some other systems in SIM that in a cluster and it marks them as such and doesn't delete them.

Thanks

Do you have the clustering agent turned on both nodes?

If not, check in this location to be sure that these values are different:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Compaq Insight Agent\hostGUID

If the two are the same then you need to figure out a way to get that fixed (good luck).

HP said to delete it then re-add but that was not successful for me. I also tried reinstalling the agents. This is only a problem if you used Norton Ghost or some other way to build this server other than manual or RDP.
