Error description

  • In some cases in some environments, the field awsInstanceId of
Computer System objects can get populated with the value
received from commands used to get the instanceid of an ec2
machine. These commands are always executed on the target
machine iregardless if that the target is an ec2 machine or not.
The value received can sometimes be HTML text for blocking the
access. This blocking message gets incorrectly saved in the
field and can result in storage error if the message content is
very big. Additionally, if the same content is received for
different computer system then those computer system can get
merged. The fix will stop setting value of a blocking webpage
text in this field.
