Figure 4. The OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter Successfully Added to vCenter
NOTE: For all vCenter operations, OMIVV uses the privileges of a registered user and not the privileges of a logged-in user.
For example: Suppose, a user X with the necessary privileges registers OMIVV with vCenter and user Y has only Dell
privileges. The user Y can now log in to the vCenter and can trigger a firmware update task from OMIVV. While performing
the firmware update task, OMIVV uses the privileges of user X to put the machine into maintenance mode or reboot the
host.
Installation Verification
The following steps verify that the OMIVV installation was successful:
1. Close any vSphere Client windows and start a new vSphere Web Client.
2. Confirm that the OMIVV icon appears inside vSphere Web Client.
3. Make sure that vCenter can communicate with the OMIVV by attempting a PING command from the vCenter server to the
virtual appliance IP address or hostname.
4. In vSphere Web Client, click Plug-ins > Managed Plug-ins.
5. In the Plug-in Manager window verify the OMIVV is installed and enabled.
