OMSA and OME on an R720xd
Hi,
If we log into a DRAC, where OMSA is not installed on the O/S, then the DRAC will NOT show the HostName.
If OMSA is installed, the HostName will be populated.
With OME though, the HostName is populated, even when OMSA is not installed (Using DRAC only Discovery with WSMan and SNMP).
How does OME get the HostName if no OMSA is installed?
Thx,
John Bradshaw

Hi John,
OME works to get the hostname of any device you discover using DNS name resolution. If OME gets a hostname from DNS, that is shown in device tree. If it happens that no name resolution takes place, then the first fall back is to fetch the instrumentation name of that device. If both these options fail, then OME falls back to show the IP address of that device in device tree.
