Can you check the discovery setting under Manage->Discovery and Inventory->Discovery Schedule and see if the Name resolution is set to DNS or NetBIOS. The default for OME is DNS and if the hostnames are setup appropriately in DNS with the reverse lookup working, OME should be able to use FQDN instead of NetBIOS.
Looking at the log messages, it looks like OME is not able to get the MAC Addresses causing this issue. Are the servers which are discovered, successfully classified and do you see inventory data with MAC addresses for those? Which protocols are you using?
You mentioned that it is working in ITA. Is it possible for you to compare the "dconfig.ini" files in your OME and ITA installation? The file is located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Dell\SysMgt\Essentials\configuration". Look if you see any entries in the "SYSTEM_NAME_EXCLUDE_LIST" entry which are present in ITA and not in OME.
With same name (Netbios), there are server physical and other virtual. The MAC Address change when a new discovery of a subnetwok is doing... (Card Network and MAC is different for each server). (When is an Virtual, the detail of the server is not associate with the good Host...)
For all subnets I use : SNMP & WMI. Now, the Troubleshooting tool is outside Essentials, so it's more difficult to check password for WMI... So I have check and change all password to be sure of the twice protocols are working correctly.
I have check dconfig.ini :
The only difference that I found is the MAC on PRIVATE_MAC_EXCLUDE_LIST : 0000000000000000. Is not in same order on ITA and OME...

OME does not list virtual servers (guest VMs running on physical host machines) in the device tree. That is a difference in behavior from ITA. If you are discovering virtual servers, it may generate those log messages. Is it possible for you to have separate discovery range for physical servers?

Hi,
Yes, setting is on DNS.
My DNS is setup correctly with reverse, I haven't this problem with IT Assistant, and settings looks same, .ini too ...

The order of the entry shouldn't matter.
