Enabling The OMSA Link Outside the Configuration Wizard

To launch OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) within the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter virtual appliance, the OMSA Web Server must be installed and configured.

  2. Use the OMSA Web Server URL text box to enter the URL for OMSA. You must include the full URL including the HTTPS and the port number 1311.

  3. To save this URL, click Apply.
