View service instance and vCenter relationships
Starting from 2.0 release, OMNI displays the relationships between the vCenter and the service instances (SFS, OME-Modular,
or NSX-T), and the relationship type.
OMNI automation service periodically queries the hosts information from the service instances and the registered vCenters.
The information is used to build the relationship between the service instances and the vCenter. Select OMNI Home >
Relationships tab to view the relationship information and the type of the relationship between the entities.
Click Recalculate Relationship to recalculate the relationship between the entities manually.
