Full Device Inventory Host Name Problem
-
When I perform a full inventory via the PXE menu of a host computer, I add a custom Host Name, but when the registration is done, the host name listed in the FOG interface is the MAC address, just like it would be if I used quick registration. I can’t find the host name that I entered anywhere in the description either. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
-
What is the hostname you’re using? Is it 15 characters or longer? Does it contain special characters?
-
The Host Name that I was trying to use was “Mini Desktop.”
-
I don’t think hostname’s are allowed to have spaces.

Thanks for the info. I wan’t exactly sure. I will try tonight and let you know.

Thank you,

That was indeed the problem. As soon as I got rid of the space, it registered properly. I don’t know what I was thinking, as all of our current host names don’t have spaces, but have dashes instead. Thanks for your help!

No problem, and glad I could be of assistance.
