Description:
If a system is removed from the distributed reporting cluster, and then re-installed as a different type (Console vs Poller), using the same names, then the machine_id tables of all the cluster members will have the incorrect information about what type of eHealth system that server is.
Solution:
To force eHealth to check and update the machine ID table, correcting the machine type, do:
nhUpdateClusterTable -host <host ID>
Where hostID is the cluster member to be updated. Repeat for all machines that need to be updated.
