Cannot update the alias field in USM for device interfaces

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

I am unable to update the alias field in USM on devices interfaces.
When trying to update the alias field in the USM on the interfaces of a network device it is not getting updated and it reverts back to what was discovered originally.

Environment

UIM 8.5.1/ UIM 9.0.2

Cause

This is caused by an internal issue in discovery server. The workaround for this problem is to restart the discovery server probe; however the fix resolves the issue. 

Resolution

The hotfix discovery_server-9.0.2.HF1 resolves this issue.
This hotfix can be deployed on UIM 9.02 but has also been tested on UIM 8.5.1 successfully.
