Configuration scenarios OMNI automation action
NOTE: In vCenter, trunk VLAN or private VLAN for
port groups is not supported.
● OMNI associates the newly created vCenter VLAN to the
SmartFabric Ethernet uplinks and related servers.
NOTE: OMNI does not associate VLANs to the
SmartFabric uplinks when there is more than one
Ethernet uplink in the SmartFabric. Assign VLANs
manually to the uplinks using the OME-Modular UI.
For a port group VLAN deletion from vCenter OMNI removes the VLAN associated with the related servers,
but not from the uplinks. OMNI does not remove the VLAN
configuration from OME-Modular.
On deletion of OMNI-created VLAN from OME-Modular During synchronization, OMNI adds the removed VLANs back
to the corresponding servers and uplinks in OME-Modular.
On removal of OMNI-created VLAN from an uplink in OME-
Modular
During synchronization, OMNI adds the VLANs back to the
corresponding uplink in OME-Modular.
View OMNI-created VLANs in OME-Modular
You can use OME-Modular console to view the configuration changes done by OMNI as
part of automation. In OME-Modular, the OMNI-created VLAN has the naming convention of
NETWORK_<ID> for the name and OMNI NETWORK_<ID> - DO NOT DELETE for description.
