Input/Output Modules
All the network Input/Output Modules along with their IP address, service tag, Input/Output type, model, firmware version and
slot information are displayed.
Launch I/O Modules console from Input/Output Modules page.
To view information about Input/Output Modules, perform the following steps:
1. In OMIMSSC, click Configuration and Deployment, and then click Modular Systems View. Expand the Modular
Systems View, and click service tag.
All service tag of that model are displayed.
2. To view the Input/Output module, click I/O Modules tab.
Launching Input Output Modules console
To launch Input Output Module console, perform the following steps:
1. In OMIMSSC, expand Configuration and Deployment, click Modular Systems View. Expand the model to individual
devices level.
All devices under that model are displayed.
2. Click I/O Modules tab.
3. Click IP address of the device.
Launching Cluster View
The Cluster View page lists all the clusters that are discovered in OMIMSSC. View cluster’s Fully Qualified Name (FQDN),
service tag, and number of servers present in that cluster. Also, create a logical switch for clusters, and then create Storage
Spaces Direct clusters using the predefined Operational Template.
You can perform the following tasks on Cluster View page:
● Creating logical switch (only for SCVMM 2016 and 2019 users)
● Creating Storage Spaces Direct clusters (only for SCVMM 2016 and 2019 users)
● Launching iDRAC console
● To view latest clusters discovered, refresh the page.
To view cluster groups discovered in OMIMSSC:
1. In OMIMSSC, click Configuration and Deployment, and then click Cluster View.
All the different types of clusters are grouped and listed.
2. To view information about specific type of clusters, expand the cluster type.
All the clusters of this type are listed on the left pane.
3. To view servers present in a cluster, click a cluster name.
Launching iDRAC console
To launch iDRAC console, perform the following step:
In OMIMSSC, expand Configuration and Deployment, and select one of the following:
● Click Server View. Based on the server (if it is a host or an unassigned server), click Unassigned Servers or Hosts tab,
and click the iDRAC IP address of the server.
The Unassigned Servers tab is displayed by default.
To view the hosts tab, click Hosts.
● Click Cluster View. Expand the cluster type and expand cluster group to server level.
The Server tab is displayed.
