Installation and Configuration Overview
The following high-level steps outline the overall installation procedure for the OMIVV . These procedures assume that the
required hardware is in place and running the required VMware vCenter software.
The following information is an outline of the installation process. To begin the actual installation, see the section Deploy OVF
Using Web Client.
Installation Overview
1. Install OMIVV.
a. Be sure systems are connected and the vCenter server is up and running.
b. Deploy the Open Virtualization Format (OVF) file that contains the OMIVV using the vSphere client or vSphere Web
client..
c. Upload the license file.
d. Register the OMIVV with vCenter server using the Administration Console.
NOTE:
Register using FQDN is highly recommended. For both IP / FQDN based registrations, the hostname of the
vCenter should be properly resolvable by the DNS server.
2. Complete the Initial Configuration Wizard.
Deploying the OMIVV OVF Using the vSphere Web Client
This procedure assumes that you have downloaded and extracted the product zip file
(Dell_OpenManage_Integration_<version number>.<build number>.zip) from the Dell website.
To deploy the OMIVV OVF using the vSphere Web Client:
1. Locate the OMIVV virtual disk that you downloaded and extracted and run Dell_OpenManage_Integration.exe.
2. Accept the EULA and save the OVF file.
3. Copy or move the OVF file to a location accessible to the VMware vSphere host to which you will upload the appliance.
