The virtual machine is discovered as an unmanaged system
For VMware and Microsoft Virtual Server virtual machines only, a virtual machine might appear
as unmanaged when you perform a discovery. To resolve this issue:
1.
Log in to HP SIM.
2.
Select to view a collection that shows the unmanaged systems.
3.
Select the unmanaged systems.
4.
Select Options
→Identify Systems, and then click Run Now.

When identification is complete, return to step 2 to determine whether any virtual machines
are still listed as unmanaged. If so, repeat steps 3 through 5 until all virtual machines are
listed as managed.
After all virtual machines are managed, they remain in that state even if you perform a discovery
again.
