glpi-remote del is not working as expected

Describe the bug

After a changed IP address we are attempting to delete an entry from the glpi-remote list and re-add it with the new IP address but the entry remains. On deletion the entry disappears, we then add the host with the new IP and on inspection everything looks correct but on the next agent run the old IP is back.

To reproduce

1. Add a host via glpi-remote add winrm://USER:PASSWORD@IP_ADDRESS
2. Change the IP address of the host
3. run glpi-remote list | grep IP_ADDRESS
4. Delete the entry via its position in the list
5. E.g. glpi-remote del NO
6. Re-add the host via glpi-remote add winrm://USER:PASSWORD@NEW_IP_ADDRESS
7. Run glpi-agent
8. You will see [error] Remoteinventory worker[3] failed to handle winrm://USER:PASSWORD@IP_ADDRESS

Expected behavior

An inventory with the new IP address should be generated.

Deleting the remote clients from the list and re-adding them by hostname seems to work, but not via IP address.

Hi @GuidoWilden

could it be a problem related to the host-key verification ? So did you try to use ssh to access the remote server on the new ip before running glpi-agent ?

Can you eventually provide all the log lines in debug2 related to RemoteInventory task before reaching the seen [error] line ?
