OpenManage Essentials to operate properly. As a general rule, ensure that your web server is configured for a minimum of 50
active connections.

Discovery and inventory
The processor count in OpenManage Essentials differs for managed systems that contain processors with multiple cores or
HyperThreading enabled. The count differs based on whether the managed system is discovered using the CIM or SNMP
protocol. The systems discovered using SNMP report physical processors, and the systems discovered using CIM report logical
processors.
Issue 2:
Description: An EqualLogic storage array is displayed even after excluding the EqualLogic discovery range.
Resolution: If the EqualLogic Group Management, EqualLogic Storage Group, and all the EqualLogic member IP addresses are
included in a single discovery range configuration, excluding that range will exclude the entire group in the device tree.
If these IP addresses are distributed among multiple discovery range configurations, to exclude the EqualLogic group, all the
associated discovery ranges must be excluded.
