7. In the vCenter Registration window, click Register New vCenter Server.
8. In the Register New vCenter Server window, do the following:
a. Under vCenter Name, in the vCenter Server IP or Hostname text box, enter the server IP or hostname and then in
the Description text box, enter the description that is optional.
NOTE:
Registering using Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) is not mandatory but highly recommended. For both
Internet Protocol (IP) and FQDN based registrations, the host name of the vCenter must be properly resolvable by
the DNS server.
b. Under Admin User Account, in Admin User Name, enter the Admin user name.
Enter the username as domain\user or domain/user or user@domain. The Admin user account is used by the OMIVV
administration.
c. In Password, enter the password.
d. In Verify Password, enter the password again.
9. Click Register.
NOTE:
One instance of OMIVV can support upto 10 vCenters which are a part of the same vCenter SSO. Multiple
independent instances of vCenters are currently not supported.
10. Do one of the following:
● If you are using the OMIVV trial version, go to step 12.
● If you are using the full product version, the license file will be e-mailed to you, and you must import this license to your
virtual appliance. To import the license file, click Upload License.
11. In the Upload License window, click Browse to navigate to the license file and then click Upload to import the license file.
NOTE:
● If the license file is modified or edited in any way, the license file will not work and you must send an e-mail with the
original order number to [e-mail]. The license XML file is used in this procedure and it does
not come with a hard coded file name.
