New in this release

• Server-initiated discovery—With this feature, new servers in a datacenter can notify OpenManage Enterprise and can get

automatically discovered. Servers should have a firmware version of 4.00.00.00 or later.

• Immediate updation of the onboarded MX7000 chassis inventory when the sleds are added, removed or replaced.

• Configuration management with Profiles—This feature enables pre-creating profiles with device specific settings (including virtual

identities) for deployment to devices later. Profile management allows for easy migration of settings from one device to another.

• In-band driver update support for the devices running on 64-bit Windows versions.

• Non-virtual identity attributes can inherit values from the source template and can be edited prior to deployment or auto-deployment.

• Secure attributes of templates, such as passwords, can be edited.

• Identify and mark 'assigned' identities on the device configuration inventory.

• A pre-canned ' Virtual Identity Usage by pool' report is included in Reports.

• Enhancements:

○ VLAN setting changes in templates can be immediately propagated on modular systems.

○ Support for YX4X XC (14G XC) platforms. For more information, refer the OpenManage Enteprise version 3.4 Support Matrix.

○ Improved virtual identity assignment—virtual identities which are not assigned from OpenManage Enterprise, are automatically

identified and marked as 'assigned.'

○ Improved robustness and scaling for server configuration inventory.

○ In the event of a console upgrade failure, the pre-installed state of the appliance is restored.
