Designer logs you out, but preserves the changes. To save the template, login, recover the
modifications, and then save the template.
Action
Special characters do not validate in Cost units field in Designer.Issue
—Possible cause
The Insight Orchestration Designer does not validate the Cost units text field. To avoid displaying
unexpected characters, do not enter special characters in the Cost units field when configuring the
template.
Action
A virtual IP address can be assigned only to the first network connected to the server group.Issue
—Possible cause
The Insight Orchestration Designer enables you to define virtual IP addresses for a server group. If
multiple networks are connected to the group, Insight Orchestration only enables you to assign
Action
virtual IP addresses to the first network listed for the server group. Networks are listed in alphanumeric
order.
To workaround this issue, do one of the following:
• Start the network name with an “a”, placing the network you want to use first in the list.
• Export and edit the template XML, changing the network assigned to the virtual IP.
Troubleshooting communication failures.Issue
—Possible cause
Action
• Verify that the vCenter credentials are correct on Systems Insight Manager.
• Verify that the virtual machine hosts are correctly registered to Insight Control virtual machine
management usage and are not reporting issues on Systems Insight Manager
• Verify that HP Insight Dynamics is correctly displaying the resources (physical or virtual.)

Insight Manager
Fix any communication issues and then wait for the next synchronization cycle. The resources should
display correctly in the Insight Orchestration Unassigned Pool.
