A newly discovered server is added into an existing custom group.

When a new server is added to a custom group and assigned to a Compliance Baseline CB1, but shows as “Compliance Incomplete,” it indicates that the server’s current configuration has not been fully inventoried or compared against the baseline. To resolve this, a Configuration Inventory task should be run on the new server. This task will gather the current configuration details of the server and compare them with the compliance baseline to determine if there are any discrepancies.

Here are the steps to fix the issue:

Select the New Server: In OpenManage Enterprise, navigate to the server list and select the newly added server.

Run Configuration Inventory: Go to the server’s actions or context menu and select the option to run a Configuration Inventory task.

Wait for Completion: Allow the task to complete. It will collect configuration data from the server.

Check Compliance Status: After the inventory task is complete, check the compliance status again. The server should now reflect the correct compliance status based on the baseline CB1.

Running a Configuration Inventory task ensures that all configuration settings of the server are accounted for and compared against the defined compliance baseline. This process is essential for maintaining the integrity of server configurations and ensuring that all servers adhere to the organization’s standards1.
