HP SIM server has a werong IP address

Hi.
Our Sim server has two NIC : one for normal operations and one for the backup. In the systems list, the CMS appears with the backup network IP address. And it's Ilo can't link with it. If I try to add a machine with the normal IP address, it replies that there is already a system with this address but I don't see it. If I try to delete the entry with the backup address, it replies that I can't delete the SIM server.
How can I do to make it use the good IP address ?
Thanks.

Re: HP SIM server has a werong IP address

You can try doing this.

1. Stop HPSIM service. Disable the backup network card. (Under Network connections, select the backup card and right click -> disable).

2. Restart HPSIM service. Provide the normal IP in the discovery page and execute discovery. Make sure that normal IP resolves to same HPSIM servername.

After the discovery process is completed, Open All systems list. It should now have the normal IP address.

Now enable the backup network card.

Hope it works!

Re: HP SIM server has a werong IP address

Thanks Haridass, it worked perfectly. I did not have to make a new discovery, after disabling the service NIC and restarting SIM the good IP address was here.
And the Ilo is now linked with it.
Thanks again.
