What is the OS of the duplicated computers? I've seen an issue before where the Mac was sending in different workgroup/domain names throwing off the folding logic. Name, Domain/Workgroup name and the RMS MessageSystem address are the 3 values that make up the logic. For example, to prevent a new machine being created each time a status message or event comes in, the management service needs to try and map the message details with an existing computer record (computerid) in the database. Looking at the stored procedures, the RMS message system address is checked first as that should be unique to the computer. So it should be able to lookup the the computer id from the message system address, e.g. Router$computer1:5555. If no match it made, the domain name and computer name are taken in combination as in theory in a domain, all computers in the same domain should have a unique name. Lastly the name in isolation is used. In each case a computerid is trying to be looked up. If no results are found then a new computer record is created.
