NEW 5.3 SIM and 1st server MP not Recognized

[Tobin Marchbanks]

I have added the 1st server to a new SIM installation. It is a ProLiant ML370 G4. The Management Processor was discovered as well but doesn't have the same System Name as the server. Therefore when I click on All Servers and I look at the Server I don't see anything in the MP column. How can I get the MP to associate in SIM with it's server?

If you had to name the server and the MP the same thing, that would really confuse DNS. Rather, association is done based on a unique key retrieved from the server and the iLO, essentially serial number concatenated with product ID. Commonly, if a server has had a service event like an MLB replacement, the ESN can be forgotten to be programmed and then associations are broken. Double check to make sure the server is reporting an ESN.

The MotherBoard was not replaced on this system to my knowledge.

Where would I check the ESN of both the system and the iLO? I can login to the iLO and the SMH but don't see a variable defined as an ESN.
