FMS upgrade to 5.7.5.6 Duplicate Host

Hi, I am running FMS 5.7.5.6. I noticed that after I upgraded, I am seeing multiple host options. If it is a VM, it would seem as though FVE is recognizing it as a IC "host" and also a VM, when the machine is a VM. The actual VM is the correct machine, but is anyone aware of a known bug that might cause this within 5.7.5.6?

This particular case, it is an exchange agent, but I only have one exchange agent setup and yet it shows up 3 times as a "host." I' only see one host in the "agent staus" page as well (second screenshot).

Thanks for any assistance

Hello Jason,

Typically, for every VM object there will be a corresponding Host object due to the way Foglight Data model is designed. However in your case, there are multiple Host objects for the same VM and that is a problem. I doubt the issue is FMS version specific. It would probably be better if you open a Support case for further investigation.

BTW, are you running FVE product? I am asking because the latest (8.5) version of FVE runs Management server version 5.7.5.4 and not 5.7.5.6

Is 5.7.5.6 for a different product line?

Latest version of regular Foglight product ships with Foglight Management Server (FMS) version 5.7.5.6 Upcoming version 8.5.5 of Foglight for Virtualization Ent (FVE) product will include the same Management server version.

Thank you for the answer.

I think I installed the incorrect version. I may have installed standalone server, so I may need to revert to FVE.

Do you know if this hotfix will apply to 5.7.5.4? It says 5.7.5.5, but need to know if I can apply it to 5.7.5.4.

Hi Prasad,

I am all set. I spoke with support yesterday. I am going to wait until 8.5.5 FVE to do an upgrade to fix the issue I am experiencing.

Duplicate Host objects issue can be caused by many different things. So it would be better if you open a Support case in order to investigate your specific environment.
