HPSIM 4.1 Deleting systems and they just keep coming back!

[Joe Richards]

We have lab systems that come and go or constanting being rebooted. We want to delete them from HPSIM, but they just keep coming back! How do you delete a system and have it NOT reappear in HPSIM?

Thanx!

[Joel Rubenstein]

Go to Options-->Discovery-->Automatic Discovery. Add the systems you do not want to discover to the IP address exclusion range. Alternately you could just disable automatic discovery.

[Joe Richards]

Auto discovery is NOT on. Anytime we add a new system is only by manual discovery. We delete the systems in "All Systems" window.

Do you have the check box for discover new systems when SMNP trap is recieved in the Auto-Discovery settings?

I have never seen a deleted system return except when I forgot to uncheck that box.
