Infrastructure Software

I had a "discover Server" job fail and now the Manager won't discover any more servers at all. The server that failed is listed under the unassigned servers but it wouldn't do anything with it. Any time I try to take any actions on the server it says that the object doesn't exist but it won't delete it. I tried everything I could think of and decided to reinstall the VM Server with a new name and IP and try again. That failed every time so I installed VM server 3.0 on another server and it fails as well. I am getting a Java NullPointer error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. We haven't purchased our support for it yet so can't call it in.


Thanks
Bill
