Summary
We have a load balancer in our environment (an F5) that we run the "F5 BIG-IP LTM by SNMP" discovery job against. This discovery job populates many CIs including many IP CIs.
When NNMi pushes it's topology to uCMDB (the F5 is also monitored by NNMi and is included in the push) the uCMDB seems to delete many of those IPs discovered by discovery.
Question
In our environment we have uCMDB 10.33 CP24 running on windows. We also have NNMi 10.20 running on Linux.
We have integrated NNMi to uCMDB using the NNMi "HPE BSM/uCMDB" integration provided with NNMi.
We have a load balancer in our environment (an F5) that we run the "F5 BIG-IP LTM by SNMP" discovery job against. This discovery job populates many CIs including many IP CIs.
When NNMi pushes it's topology to uCMDB (the F5 is also monitored by NNMi and is included in the push) the uCMDB seems to delete many of those IPs discovered by discovery.
We are wondering why the NNMi push causes uCMDB to delete the IP CIs?
Attached to this ticket is a screen capture from NNMi about the F5 and a CSV dump of the CI history of the F5 that shows the NNMi integration is causing the deletes.
Thanks
