Report Manager - Data collection

Hi,

I'm having problems with data collection on a number of servers.

Essentially, I've configured data logging on a number of servers

by creating a job in the 'Manage jobs' window, using the task type

'data logging' and running it against a number of hosts.

Unfortunately, when I look at the 'data collection' window via report

manager, a number of host entries have an excamation mark attached

which implies that data has not been collected. If I look at the attribute editor for one of the logged entries on an affected server, the history tab

clearly states that the 'Save History as Disk_File' is ticked.

Any ideas?

I have also seen this issue. Some of these issues were fixed by checking

DNS. For data collection to work both forward and reverse DNS must work

for the agent. If there is a mismatch or missing DNS it doesn't work.

If there is a mismatch in DNS sometimes a re-discovery is required.

Many thanks, I'll take a look at DNS
