DNS Host name Resolution
DNS resolution is working correctly, but the hosts in question do have multiple dns entries, which reference different names.
I've tried importing host files to get the system names correct, but it always goes back to display it in IP form.
In IM7 it was possible to edit systems to display the correct name. I've search through SIM and this feature, even through the comand prompt doesn't seem available.
Any help would be greatly recieved.
Regards,
Stephen

Re: DNS Host name Resolution
I have a similar problem with a cluster. SIM seems seems to think my Virtual Cluster is a server and the Node is a Cluster and it's backwards and there's no way to change it manually.

Re: DNS Host name Resolution
You can supply hosts entries to hpSIM by going to Options --> Manual or Automatic Discovery --> Hosts file page

Re: DNS Host name Resolution
Having added the correctly formatted host file manually to SIMS it displays the host by it's IP address.

Re: DNS Host name Resolution
As others have noted you need Reverse Lookups.
Also they need to correlate with the forward lookups.
Here we are a mix of AD and Unix based DNS. We're slowly mving to new sub-domains.
What I found was that if you had an entry for n.n.n.n pointing to server.myco.com, but the server in the forward lookup was server.subdomain.myco.com then IM would not use the name.
SIM uses only DNS to cerify the name as this is common to OSes. It seems to want to make very sure that it has the correct name before it uses it.
At this point I don't see where there's a bug that needs to be fixed. We have a DNS that is far from standard, but it has been made to correctly identify the devices for SIM.
