Enabling Server Administrator Services on the
Managed System
The Server Administrator Web Server communicates with the VMware ESXi
system through the Server Administrator Common Interface Model (CIM)
provider. The Server Administrator CIM provider is an OEM provider on the
VMware ESXi system. CIM OEM providers are disabled by default on
VMware ESXi. You must enable the CIM OEM providers on the VMware
ESXi 3.5/ESXi 4.0 system before accessing it using Server Administrator
Web Server.
Enabling CIM OEM Providers Using VMware Infrastructure Client (for
VMware ESXi 3.5)
To enable CIM OEM providers using the VMware Infrastructure (VI) Client,
you need to have the VI Client tool installed. You can access the tool from
http://<ip_address> where <ip_address> is the IP address of the VMware
ESXi system.
To enable CIM OEM providers on the VMware ESXi system using VI Client:
1
Log in to the VMware ESXi system with the VI Client.
2 Select the Configuration tab.
3 Under the Software section on the left side, click Advanced Settings .
4 In the Advanced Settings dialog box, click Miscellaneous on the left pane.
