Unable to add nodes

Hello,
    I've successfully added about 8-10 servers under various containers and now suddenly it won't let me add any more nodes. Every time I try (any combination of names under any container), I keep getting a popup saying "Cannot create node object "xxx": Object already exist". Screenshot is attached.

How do I fix this? I've using the latest NetXMS (1.2.14) and the same issue appears in the Management Console in both Workbench and Web-UI.

Thanks,
m^e

P.S. All other replies to similar topics indicate searching for existing nodes via name or IP. I can say with 100% certainty that the nodes I'm trying to add do not exist.

A couple of more questions:
1. Is there a way to enable debug to check what's happening (what query is being executed) when I try to add new nodes? That may provide some insight into this.
2. Can I create entries for nodes directly in the database to bypass this issue? I tried adding nodes directly in the nodes table - but they didn't appear in the Management Console. I believe they'll have to be added to the object_properties table as well?

This silly unable to add issue is rendering useless what otherwise is a terrific piece of software!!

Try to search by IP like shown in attach.

There are java API exists for adding nodes.

Hi andrey,
    Thank you for your response. I've tried the filter method already, but couldn't find the server with IP which I'm unable to add. Where can I find more info. on the java api?

Thank you,
