Thanks for the info That is kind of what I was thinking as well. For on prem I probably could have figured it out but being this was a Cloud install I didn't have that option other than manual updates via UI. Which of course just kind of turns into a nightmare when you start talking about the maintenance involved with manual links or unlinks as new guests get built or as guests get decommed. Thanks, Shawn

Hi Markward We have the agents installed on the Nutanix guest machines (not installed on the host machines), have the host details as well as the host-guest relations. For step 4 you say either manually add the data to FNMS or create a business import. How would you link the guest to a host via the business import process? We have the Cloud instance of Flexera and in the business adapter for Inventory device I don't see the option to populate a host field with data supplied. There is nothing in the Relationships option to link host to guests either Thanks, Shawn

I would agree that this common message and nothing really to be concerned about however I have told the client this and they continue to ask what the reason it is happening as we get the same messages multiple times daily only for the same two machines (the dev Flexera App and Beacon servers) These servers that are always connected to the network (server monitoring team would be alerted if they continually went off network). As mentioned the the only way the ndi files from these servers gets uploaded to the the prod servers for processing is via a batch that copies the ndi file from a the dev servers to a prod beacon. If the device was not connected to the network to copy the ndi file the job would be failing also which we see no evidence of that either. I will open a ticket with support to see what they are able to come up with Thanks, Shawn

On our Prod Application servers System Health Dashboard widget we continually see the following error message about ndi files from our Dev Application and Beacon server: ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.InventoryOutOfDate: Ignoring out of date Inventory. Inventory Date: 8/3/2020 12:11:01 AM; Last processed inventory HWDate: 8/3/2020 12:11:01 AM SWDate: 8/3/2020 12:11:01 AM ServicesDate: 8/3/2020 4:00:08 PM VMwareServicesDate: 8/3/2020 4:00:08 PM, OracleVMManagerDate 8/3/2020 4:00:08 PM at ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.DatabaseImport.AssertInventoryIsNewer(InventoryReport lastSaved, Inventory file, DateTime fileDate) at ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.DatabaseImport.Begin(InventoryImportSession session) at ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.Implementation.RootNodeProcessor.HandleElement() at ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.Implementation.BaseElementNodeProcessor.Process(InventoryImportSession session) at ManageSoft.Inventory.Importer.InventoryImporter.Import(String importType, Stream inputStream, Boolean isGzipped, String sourceIdentifier, String targetFilename, MGSLicenseTermCheckResult licenseCheckResult, ImportProcessingStats& stats, IDispatcherPreferences preferences) The number of records vary but is is generally 20-25 a day but sometimes more Both of these servers have the beacon installed on them so the flexera agent is installed by default and generates a ndi file that gets consumed by the Dev App server. In order to have the Dev servers also report in the Prod environment we copy the ndi file generated from these servers to one of the Prod beacons for consumption. When I disable the process that copies the ndi files to a Production beacon the error's stop but then the inventory records for these servers become stale There is no other process that I can tell that is replicating an inventory file over to the Prod environment (I have looked for any scheduled tasks on these servers, zero touch tasks, Discovery & Inventory rules on the Prod server that might include these machines as targets) but can't find anything that would be causing this error. Has anyone else seen this or have any idea's as to what I could check to see what is causing these errors? Thanks, Shawn
