3 Important notes This section provides important information that you must consider when you are working on OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter. • • OMIVV currently supports only the community named "Public" or "public". The SNMP community name is not configurable. If another community name is used, the events are not received by OMIVV and the events are not displayed in the VMware vCenter. A system profile created using a reference server with a certain BIOS version can cause deployment to fail.
