LMS 4.1 -- Displayname-change doen't change archived config-file-name in shadow-directory

[lo.mueller]

Hi all,

we had to change display-name/hostname for several devices in DCR.

Performing a new config-collection we discovered that in shadow-directory (/var/adm/CSCOpx/files/archive/shadow/...)

the actual device config was saved with the old display-name (e.g. Filename: SWITCH-1.cfg).

Deleting the old config-file with old display-name and performing a new config-collection the newly created

config-file was again created with old display-name (SWITCH-1.cfg instead of SWITCH-BLD-1.cfg).

Is that normal behavior or a bug?

Thanks for any feedback

Lothar

1. Ensure that the updated display names are correct in DNS or the host file if used. And then run "

NMSROOT\bin\perl NMSROOT\bin\resolver.pl ".

2. Re-run inventory collection and sync archive again.

3. Check the global discovery settings to verify you have selected update display name.

4. What happens when you remove the device from the DCR and re-add it with the correct display name?
