Marianne Feifer 2016-05-26 20:05:14 UTC Doc Text Cause: host name from being constantly incremented every ems_refresh.

Consequence: Provisioning failing in production due to ESX Hosts with Identical host names in the VMDB causing the DISPLAY name to dynamically increment over multiple refreshes

Fix: When saving a host, check to see if the found.name is the current host name plus a duplicate host name suffix. This prevents the host name from being constantly incremented every ems_refresh.

Doc Text Cause: host name from being constantly incremented every ems_refresh.

Consequence: Provisioning failing in production due to ESX Hosts with Identical host names in the VMDB causing the DISPLAY name to dynamically increment over multiple refreshes

Fix: When saving a host, check to see if the found.name is the current host name plus a duplicate host name suffix. This prevents the host name from being constantly incremented every ems_refresh.

Result:
In the previous version of CloudForms Management Engine, provisioning failed in production due to ESX hosts with identical host names in the VMDB causing the display name to dynamically increment over multiple refreshes.

This patch when saving a host now checks to see if the found.name is the current host name plus a duplicate host name suffix. This prevents the host name from being constantly incremented with every ems_refresh which has now resolved the issue.
