This can be done if you have predictable iDRAC IP addresses or DNS names.  For example, if your host's IP was 1.2.3.4 and the iDRAC was predictably 1.2.3.5 or the host was called "myserver" and the iDRAC was on "myserver-idrac".

However, this may be against LogicMonitor's terms of service because it would halve the number of Resources that you would have to license.

we do have a standard to add hostname-idrac, so that is an interesting option. 

thanks, i'll have to check our sales team about the licensing concern
