Port information
Virtual appliance and managed nodes
In OMIVV, when you deploy the OMSA agent by using the Fix non-compliance hosts link available in the Fix Non-compliant
vSphere Hosts wizard, OMIVV performs the following action:
● Starts the HTTP Client service
● Enables port 8080
● Makes the port available for ESXi 5.0 or later to download and install OMSA VIB
After the OMSA VIB installation is complete, the service automatically stops and the port is closed.
