Closed as program error.
Error description
The servers that are shown in Storage Insights are created based on the host mappings that are identified on the storage systems when the storage system is probed. Storage Insights should automatically create, update, and removes servers as appropriate based on the changes to the host mappings. This includes when a server host name changes. Storage Insights is not properly handling this when a host name has changed, resulting in duplicate servers listed in the GUI.
