Upgrading from previous version of Dell EMC Server Management
Pack Suite to Dell EMC OMIMSSC version 7.1
While upgrading to the Dell EMC OMIMSSC version 7.1 from Dell EMC Server Management Pack Suite version 7.0, perform the
following steps:
1. Set up the OMIMSSC appliance by deploying the .vhd file onto a virtual machine on a Hyper-V.
2. Perform enrollment of the Operations Manager in the OMIMSSC. Wait for few minutes until the management packs are
upgraded.
NOTE: To plan the number of Proxy MS that are required, see Introduction to Proxy MS.
NOTE: The supported number of devices on a Proxy MS is 250. For more information, see Configuration planning for
Management Server and Proxy MS with deployment scenarios for supported scalability.
3. Launch the Dell EMC OpenManage Integration Dashboard and perform Synchronize with MSSC from the respective
device view to synchronize the devices that are discovered in the Operations Manager console. For example, to synchronize
the SMASH devices that are discovered in Operations Manager, go to the Server View in the Dell EMC OpenManage
Integration Dashboard and click on the Synchronize with MSSC button. A Synchronize with MSSC operation also
synchronizes the Proxy MS details that are added to the DellProxyMSGroup. For more information, see Adding Proxy MS to
DellProxyMSGroup and Synchronizing Dell Proxy MS with OMIMSSC and Synchronizing Dell EMC devices with enrolled
Operations Manager in Dell EMC OpenManage Integration Version 7.1 for Microsoft System Center
for Operations Manager(SCOM) User's Guide.
CAUTION:
Ensure to add the required number of Proxy MSes when you want to scale to large number of
devices.
NOTE: Ensure that the Dell CMC login Account profile has been associated with the Run As Account for Dell Modular
Chassis.
NOTE: Performance metrics that are generated from Dell EMC Servers and Rack Workstation Monitoring feature that is
discovered through the WSMAN protocol in the 7.0 views are not retained.
