Management processors doesn`t show the system name

Hi,
I`ve got a c7000 enclosure with 6 blades configured using the Onboard administrator. I give the iLO 2 cards a system name (blade1-2 etc) and everything seems to work fine until HP SIM shows the iLO 2 cards by IP-adress instead of the system name. All iLO cards have a Host(A) record on the DNS server.
Any ideas?

System info:
SIM 5.2 with SP1 (C.05.02.01.00)
HP BladeSystem Integrated Manager 3.3
HP Onboard Administrator 2.02

ILOs like servers will need both forward and reverse lookup entries in DNS for HPSIM to list them by name.

Got it!
Filled in the WINS server IP-adress in HP Onboard Administrator and HP SIM was able to list the ILO card by system name instead of IP-adress
