Hi guys,
I'm having issues with backup Ip address discovery in NetView 7.1.3. I have auto discovery turned on. I have a wintel server MSGSMTP with two interfaces. Primary & backup interface. We need to monitor only primary interface. This has a right entry in DNS for both primary & backup NIC. But Netview discovers both interfaces but somehow the hostname is assigning as backup interface hostname.
example as below:
MSGSMTP01 - Primary - IP- 10.10.10.10
MSGSMTP01B - Backup NIC - 10.10.10.11

Netview discovers as MPSMGT01B - has both Ip addresses(primary & backup). I deleted and still discovers as same.Netview should discover as is in DNS name with primary interface as MSGSMTP01. Am i right?
Hope my question is clear.
Please help me..
Larry
