Description movciari 2016-11-16 16:32:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
If you added RHV provider to CFME using hostname, you can accidentally add the same provider again using IP address

Also, when this happens, only the CFME representation of RHV provider which was refreshed last will remain populated

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.7.0.10

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add RHV provider using hostname
2. Add the same RHV provider using IP
3. Check your providers

Actual results:
RHV provider will be there twice

Expected results:
CFME should detect it's the same provider and refuse to add it again, with user-friendly error message

Additional info:
Detection can be done by resolving hostname to IP address, or by having some provider UUID field in RHV
Comment 2 Oved Ourfali 2016-11-21 07:10:36 UTC 
As long as the name is being checked (and it is as far as I know), I don't see why someone would add the provider using an IP.
In general, usage of IPs is not common and not recommended.

Closing this as WONTFIX.
