Troubleshooting and Limitations – Host Connection by WMI Job

  • Problem: Host connection discovery uses the following workflow: Host Connection by Shell, then Host Connection by WMI and then Host Connection by SNMP. Therefore, if Host Connection by Shell is successful, neither of the following jobs complete. Also, if Host Connection by WMI is successful, Host Connection by SNMP does not complete.

    Solution: To skip this restriction, change the Trigger Query for these jobs:

    • Select Host Connection by WMI.

    • Select the Properties tab.

    • Delete the Trigger Query ip_with_wmi_or_without_host.

    • Click the button in the Trigger Query section to create a new Trigger Query. The Choose Discovery Query dialog box appears.

    • Select ip from the list and click OK.
