32 Manage MX Chassis Infrastructure in OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter (OMIVV) with a Unified Management IP
6 Monitor events in OMIVV
The goal of hardware management is to provide the system health status and up-to-date infrastructure
information that an administrator requires to respond to critical hardware events without exiting from either the
OMIVV appliance or vCenter.
To receive events from hosts, OMIVV is configured as a trap destination for all monitored devices. OMIVV
supports SNMP v1 and SNMP v2 alerts for 12G and later hosts.
For a PowerEdge MX chassis in an MCM configuration, the trap destination is configured on a lead chassis.
OMIVV receives alerts from all lead and member chassis using the lead chassis.
