ESX inventory: import only 1 host from 5 #1904

Closed joschi99 closed 8 years ago

joschi99 commented 8 years ago

Hi,

we are using Fusioninventory 0.90+1.4 with Fusioninventory agent 2.3.18. We have 5 Dell M620 hosts in our VMWare 6.0 infrastructure. The inventory through vCenter import only 1 host and overwrite this host with the information from the other inventoried hosts, because the SSN (in our case the Dell service tag) for every 5 hosts seems the same, so for the system apears only 1 host.

I tried to inventory by commandline and I have a ocs-file for every hosts, but SSN-number in every file is the same. All other informations are right.

Any idea or solution about this?

Regards,

Jochen

That's strange you have same serial number on each host. Perhaps see the information given by the ESX through the VMWARE webservice

joschi99 commented 8 years ago

It seems that the inventory is using the serial number (asset tag) from the CMC-1000 blade chassis and not from the single hosts/servers.

Ok, so we need to check the information the vmware webservice give you.

Hi, maybe we run into this issue: http://www.dell.com/support/manuals/us/en/19/vmware-esxi-6.x/ESXi6.xRN_Pub/vSphere-webclient-displays-incorrect-service-tag-for-Dell-PowerEdge-blade-systems?guid=GUID-6F616F1B-7510-44B0-BF5A-7E9589FF2AE2&lang=en-us

This is a known issue so seems it's not fixed, so we can't do better :/

Perhaps the solution is to black list this serial number to import ESX servers without the serial number (so with name for example) and have all ESX in GLPI

This works. Thank you very much for the fast help.
