scanning of virtual hosts

scanning of virtual hosts

hi

i had a proliant dl380 g3 which i used as an old file server and service desk 7509 correctly scanned it as a windows machine.

i have now rebuild the server as an esxi 3.5 host (vmware) and i have changed the hostname of the server and i have 2 questions with regards to scanning

1) the device is still showing as a windows device, can this be changed

2) is it possible to scan vmware (or other virtual hosts machines) with service desk plus?, i do not have telnet or ssh enabled on thos host machines, so is there an other way

if the above is not possible will this be possible in future releases as i am about to embark on virtualising my server farm and it would be handy if i could have them listed properly in my asset section

many thanks
