Re-Checking Bare Metal Server Compliance
Running The Fix Non-Compliant vSphere Hosts Wizard
Run the Fix Non-Compliant vSphere Hosts Wizard to x non-compliant hosts. For information about compliance, see About Host
And Bare Metal Compliance Issues. Some non-compliant ESXi hosts require reboots. An ESXi host reboot is required if OpenManage
Server Administrator (OMSA) must be installed or updated. In addition, a reboot is required on any host that has never run CSIOR. If
you select to automatically reboot an ESXi host, the following actions take place:
For a CSIOR status x:
If CSIOR is not enabled on the host, you can enable CSIOR on the host, and then the host is set into maintenance mode and
rebooted.
For an OMSA status x:
a. OMSA is installed on the host.
b. The host is set to maintenance mode and rebooted.
c. After the reboot completes, OMSA is congured for the changes to take eect.
