Import resource list via csv file into a filter does not populate the resources into the filter membership.

Products

• Management Platform (Formerly known as Notification Server)

Issue/Introduction

When adding computers via a computer list to a new filter, the computers are imported to the filter (in this scenario to the Inclusion section), the section for "resources included in this filter" shows the right number of computers added but when looked at the "Filter Membership" section, it shows 0. Although clicking on "Update membership" or even running the "Delta Resource Membership" Update, the filter is not populated with those computers. Trying to add more computers via the imported list those are not added, doesn't update the filter membership.

No errors appear in the Altiris logs and in Altiris profiler.
