I guess I had some other logic issue with my adapter. When I backed out me changes and used the word Active without any parenthesis all was good. Thanks for helping.

Nice work @dsalter.
One word of caution: the UI in FNMS is designed for and work best as long as you don't have too many individual devices/IP addresses recorded in a target. You shouldn't have too many problems with say some 10s of devices in a target, which is what you can reasonably configure using the UI. If you happened to create a target with say 100s or 1000s of devices in it using some sort of direct manipulation of records in the database like the approach discussed above, then the UI may struggle to cope.

I am using the following database query as part of a compliance process to prove ADDM computers are in FNMS --Verify ADDM Computers are in FNMS inventory, expect results for AIX LPARs and VIO(AIX) machines as these are assigned a
--different Serial number in FNMS than is discovered by ADDM to avoid duplication of serial numbers
SELECT * FROM [AddmStaging].[dbo].[Host_ci]
LEFT JOIN [FNMS].[dbo].[ComplianceComputer_MT] as Comp ON [AddmStaging].[dbo].[Host_ci].Serial = Comp.SerialNo
WHERE [AddmStaging].[dbo].[Host_ci].Serial IS NOT NULL
AND Comp.SerialNo is NULL

Yes, changing the instance name of a SQL Server instance would require similar changes to database server configuration details in the registry and database tables as when a database is moved from one FlexNet Manager Suite instance to another.

If you are using the FlexNet agent with an on-premises installation of FlexNet and are comfortable working directly in the database, you can delete unwanted computers from the inventory database using a query like the following:
SELECT ComputerID
INTO #Computer
FROM dbo.Computer
WHERE <add an appropriate condition to identify computers to delete>
EXEC dbo.DeleteComputers
Once data has been deleted like this, the changes will be visible in the UI after the next inventory import has completed.
Of course, this can be dangerous to do since you are deleting data. Once the data is gone, the only way to recover it if you make a mistake is by restoring a database backup.
Also take a look at the following forum thread which may provide some more tips: Deleting old inventory records

If this is the account was used to configure FNMS changing the password will cause problems because the password is cached in the application configuration. To complete this in the past I was able to get all the passwords updated by re-running all the configuration (powershell) scrips that were completed when you do an upgrade or installation. These are the scripts that are in the documented under 'Configure the System'. After that I had to update the service account passwords on the beacon and Business Adapter configurations. If you have a policy against non-expiring passwords this can introduce quite a bit of work and additional risk. I wish Flexera would come up with a much easier process to complete this process because non-expiring passwords are becoming a thing of the past.

Thanks for the help with this. As kclausen and yourself pointed out it was a cross-domain trust issue. Cheers

Hi, BatchProcessTaskConsole.exe list-tasks This command is equivalent to the following database query (which you could also use within Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio): SELECT *FROM BatchProcessExecutionInfo bi WHERE BatchProcessStatusID IN (1, 2, 3) ORDER BY bi.StatusOrder, bi.DateOrder So if you kill the task with BatchProcessTaskConsole.exe, the tasks should be also deleted in the database. This will not work if Flexera services are stopped. I also encountered a case, where the logs where fine, finished with no error, but the task in the database was with status 3 (processing), I assume that do to an error, the status came back in reverse order and tasks was lost. Having this status the next tasks will no start, because the tasks have some dependencies and will not work in parallel. But if I killed the task with BatchProcessTaskConsole.exe the tasks was automatically updated to status 4 in database and the remaining tasks started to be processed. To kill a tasks in this way, you need to be sure that the tasks is lost, that's why you need to check the log files before using this command.
