Hi, Thanks for trying to help. I agree with that you wrote, the weird thing that I mentioned in my previous mail was that indeed the 'proxy3' server appears in opsview. Also to add to this mess there are other proxy servers that use the same opsviewmonitored manifest that appear in opsview and in puppet resource, this happens occasionally for some but not all of the servers.
I found out that deleting the servers entirely from opsview and letting puppet create them again solves this for some time, but after a while it enters that loop again, sometimes with the same servers and sometimes with others... Any ideas? Thanks again!
