4. Go to Monitoring and select any of the device and, then click Synchronize with MSSC to synchronize all the devices
listed in enrolled Operations Manager with the OMIMSSC.
NOTE: The Synchronization will occur periodically for every six hours by default.
Resolving synchronization errors
The Dell EMC devices that are not synchronized with OMIMSSC are listed with their IP addresses. The failure of synchronization
of Dell EMC devices discovered in the Operations Manager might have occurred due to invalid credentials, invalid https port
number or invalid SNMP port number or due to invalid community string. Due to such errors, the discovery of the devices from
the OMIMSSC fails. To resolve the synchronization errors, ensure to provide the relevant credentials.
To resolve the synchronization errors, do the following:
1. In OMIMSSC, click Monitoring, click Resolve Sync Errors.
The window displays a list of IP addresses of the devices for which synchronization has failed.
2. Select the device, and then select the device credential profile, or to create a new device credential profile click Create
New.
3. Provide a job name, and if necessary select the Go to the Job List option to view the job status automatically once the job
is submitted.
4. Click Finish to submit the job.
Adding Proxy MS to DellProxyMSGroup and Synchronizing Dell
Proxy MS with OMIMSSC
During enrollment, a group that is named DellProxyMSGroup is created. Proxy management servers that are discovered in
Operations Manager as an Agent Managed Windows computer, are required to be added to the group DellProxyMSGroup into
the Operations Manager, and perform synchronization of Proxy MS with OMIMSSC.
NOTE: Ensure that you install Operations Manager Agents on all Proxy MS before performing the below steps.
To add the DellProxyMSGroup, perform the following steps:
1. Discover the ProxyMS virtual machine as an Agent Managed Windows computer in Operations Manager. For more
information, see the Operations Manager documentation at technet.microsoft.com.
2. After enrollment in OMIMSSC admin portal, log in into the OMIMSSC console.
3. Select Authoring > Groups. Select the DellProxyMSGroup from the group list.

8. Select the Proxy MSs and click Add, and then click OK in the properties wizard.
NOTE:
After adding the Proxy MS to DellProxyMSGroup, you need to disable the iSM discovery that is run on proxy agent
and to suppress the event ID 33333 from getting regenerated.
1. Select Authoring > Management Pack Objects > Object Discoveries.
2. In the Look for field, search for iSM.
3. Select Discovered type: Dell Sever > Dell Sever Discovery.
4. Right click Dell Sever Discovery and select Overrides > Override the Object Discovery > For a Group.
5. The Select Object wizard is displayed.
6. Select the DellProxyMSGroup and Click OK, that will deactivate the iSM discovery on Proxy MS.
● In the Monitoring pane, select Dell EMC OpenManage Integration Views > OpenManage Integration Dashboard.
