Why Hyper-V autodiscovery does not find all Virtual Machines on host?

Votes:

0

Hyper-v host set on (periodic) autodiscovery seems to be able to find only one Virtual Machine on the Hyper-V host. Is this by design and is this autodiscovery process described somewhere in detail?

Hi, Yes I can. The question remains that how PRTG is supposed to work in this case, like enumerating all virtual machines or not. Logical approach here would be:

1. Enumerate all virtual machines based on autodiscovery schedule, if set. 2. Mark deleted virtual machines if removed

[I think I answered this already but cannot find it anywhere...]

Hello,

Yes I can add machines manually and the statuses of the machines are updated correctly. Should I expect these to be added automatically or not?
