The Servers DNS record is incorrect probably a missing reverse lookup..

hi,

hpsim server doesn't become the hostname from DNS server, check the hostname/ip resolving with the nslookup app.

- for testing you could add a entry to the hosts file,

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

IP systemname FDQN

and them try to add the discovery on this host.

- if its working check the dns entries A - record and also PTR.
