NOTE:

When Systems Insight Manager runs the discovery task, it changes the logical server hostname
by prefixing the hostname with the VM Host name and the service template name. For example,
if IO provisions a virtual machine named vm1 on a VM Host named VMhost1 using a template
named mytemplate, after Systems Insight Manager runs the discovery, the virtual machine
hostname is changed to VMhost1_mytemplate_vm1.

There may be a delay between the discovery task and the automatic refresh in IO, during
which the virtual machine's hostnames are not the same in Systems Insight Manager and IO.
After the next IO automatic refresh, the virtual machine name in IO is changed to the match
the Systems Insight Manager name.
