You should have --name in there before the name of the system.  I don't
know if leaving that out used to accidentally work in cobbler, or if it's
something that changed, but it's best to try it that way from the CLI.

 
I was able to delete the system using "cobbler system remove --name=SYSTEMNAME".
 
I then, tried to add a another system, I filled in the "System Name", uncheck "Netboot Enabled" and select "Profile", then click "Save", "SYNC".
Then edit the System just created and change IP assignment form "DHCP" to "Static", entered the IP and Subnet, click "Save" and observer the error I reported earlier via the Web interface.
 
Please advise..
 
Thanks
