5 Dell EMC OMIVV as a Hardware Support Manager for VMware vSphere Lifecycle Manager
Executive summary
In vSphere 7.0, VMware enhanced the VMware Update Manager to include capabilities for baselining and
remediation of firmware along with Operating System (OS) and add-on components for vSphere 7.0-based
clusters and upgraded the feature to vSphere Lifecycle Manager.
This technical white paper describes how the existing baselining and remediation capabilities in Dell EMC
OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter (OMIVV) is enhanced in version 5.1 and also describes how
OMIVV can be used as a Hardware Support Manager (HSM) for supporting firmware update functionalities on
Dell EMC PowerEdge servers using vSphere Lifecycle Manager.
