Does OMIVV support VMware vCenter server appliance
Yes, OMIVV supports the VMware vCenter Server appliance since v2.1.
A server may show as non-compliant with CSIOR status,
"Unknown"
Resolution: An unknown CSIOR state indicates a non-responsive iDRAC on the host. A manual iDRAC reset on the host fixes this issue.
Version Affected: All
Firmware level not updated when I have performed
firmware update with Apply on Next reboot option and
system was rebooted
To update firmware, run the inventory on the host after the reboot is completed. Sometimes, where the reboot event does not reach the
appliance, the inventory is not automatically triggered. In such situation, you must rerun the inventory manually to get the updated
firmware versions.
Host still displayed under chassis even after removing host
from vCenter tree
The hosts under the chassis are identified as part of the chassis inventory. After a successful chassis inventory, the host list under the
chassis is updated. Even if the host is removed from the vCenter tree, the host is displayed under the chassis until the next chassis
inventory is run.
After backup and restore of OMIVV, alarm settings are not
restored
Restoring the OMIVV appliance backup does not restore all the Alarm settings. However, in the OpenManage Integration for VMware GUI,
the Alarms and Events field displays the restored settings.
Resolution: In the OMIVV GUI, in the Settings tab, manually change the Events and Alarms settings.
OS deployment fails when NPAR is enabled on a target
node and disabled in System Profile
OS deployment fails when a System Profile with a disabled NIC Partitioning (NPAR) is applied on a target machine. Here, NPAR is enabled
on the target node and only one of the partitioned NIC, except partition 1 is selected as the NIC for the Management Tasks during the
deployment process through the deployment wizard.
Resolution: If you are changing the NPAR status using System Profile during deployment, ensure that you select only the first partition for
management network in the deployment wizard.
Version Affected: 4.1 and later
