Feature Management Dashboard does not populate
About this task
In a distributed setup, the management server where the Dell Server Management Pack suite is installed first is selected to host
all feature management activities such as discoveries, alerts, and tasks. The management server on which the Dell Server
Management Pack suite is installed first populates the Feature Management Dashboard. However, if you have manually imported
the Feature Monitoring management pack without running the installer on the management server, the Feature Management
Pack host is not selected and hence, the Feature Management Dashboard does not populate.
To populate the Feature Management Dashboard:
1. In the OpsMgr console, click Authoring.
2. In Authoring, expand Management Pack Objects.
3. Click Object Discoveries.
4. In the Look for: field, search Dell Feature Management Host Discovery.
5. Right-click Dell Feature Management Host Discovery and select Overrides > Override the Object Discovery > For all
objects of class: Dell Feature Management Host Discovery.
6. To run the feature management activities, select FmpHostFqdn and set the override value to FQDN of the management
server.
NOTE:
To schedule the feature management workflows in OpsMgr 2007 R2 clustered environment; override the
FmpHostFqdn value to the cluster’s FQDN.
