Agent Windows 2.10.1.0 causes duplicate entries (lowercase and uppercase)

[Termin0tor]

General information

Operating system : Windows 10/11

OCS Inventory information

Windows agent version : Agent Windows 2.10.1.0

Problem's description

With the previous version of the Windows agent the netbios name was being used as the hostname / pc name, all in uppercase letters. By installing Agent Windows 2.10.1.0 a new entry is being created with the computer name being written in lowercase, which causes a duplicate.

Hi @Termin0tor ,

I was unable to reproduce your problem. My test machine is called DEVELOPPEUR-WINDOWS.

I installed a 2.9.2 agent and it inventoried itself as DEVELOPER-WIN. Then I updated the agent to version 2.10.1.0. No duplicate was created and the machine was renamed DEVELOPPEUR-WINDOWS on my administration console (always in uppercase).

Can you give me more details about your agent installation (new installation / update from which version) ? What is your Windows version ?

Best regards, Charlene

It seems this only happens when you use a generated exe by the Packager-for-Windows to install OCS.

Hi @Termin0tor ,

What parameters did you set in your setup ?

Hi Charlene,

I used

/S /NOSPLASH /NOW /server=https://10.22.0.22/ocsinventory /ssl=0

I use Windows 10

Hi @Termin0tor ,

Do you have any plugins installed ? The presence of duplicate machines is often linked to a poorly installed / outdated plugin. In the server log file (/var/log/ocsinventory-server/activity.log), do you have any reference to a duplicate error ?
