Duplicate Computers generated via Domain Discovery

This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hi,



We have successfully inventoried all of our machines and we have a full set of information (including Linux and Windows boxes) and this is great, but when someone does a discovery by Domain Membership, we get LOADS of extra records in the vComputer view (which we are using to extract the data).



Does anyone know why this is?



Regards,





QuietLeni

Leni,

Are you using AD Import to populate your NS, and Network Discovery? There are several KB articles which describe this issue and/or how to work around it:
