SIM 6.3 Identification problem
Hello,
I am running into an identification problem.
Instead of using the discovery process for addind devices into SIM I import them from my CMDB using a custom script that leverages the mxnode command line utility.
Essentially for all devices in the CMDB I run the following command:
mxnode -a "nodename" -w
This effectively registers all the devices into HP SIM. However most often than not the device is not identified properly. All characteristics are recognized (name, serial number, protocols, ip address, os, etc) but the device is registered as unmanageable.
If I run more identification tasks on these systems the are not identified correctly. However if I delete them and add them through mxnode or discovery again most of the time they are identified correctly.
Hence the problem is that altough SIM has all info.config needed to identifiy the system it misses correct identification and cannot solve this trough Daily system identifications.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here is the identification task:
--------------------------------
System Name: 101-0004515
Status: Completed with major errors
Exit code: N/A
Stdout:
********* Significant issues and overall target discovery/identification
status:
Major: The system cannot be identified properly for HP SIM to manage;
unable to get one or more of the following: model, serial number or
unique identifier (UUID). For management processors, verify the
system is running the latest firmware. For Linux based operating
systems, you must have dmidecode installed, enable the
PermitRootLogin and PasswordAuthentication in sshd, and use root
sign-in credential. For HP-UX, verify the sign-in credential. For
Windows, check if WMIMapper is configured correctly on the CMS and
verify the sign-in credential.
Normal: Identification status is only available for servers, workstations,
or desktops, where monitoring is enabled.
********* Additional results (listed for information only):
