Dell OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter

Running A Warranty Retrieval Job [Wizard]

The warranty retrieval job configuration is from setting option in the OMIVV. In addition, you can also run or schedule warranty retrieval job from Job Queue->Warranty. Scheduled jobs are listed in the Job queue. In an SSO environment having multiple vCenters, the chassis warranty runs automatically with every vCenter when the warranty for any vCenter is run. Warranty is not automatically run if it is added to chassis profile.

To run a warranty retrieval job:

  1. In the Configuration Wizard, in the Warranty Schedule window, select Enable Warranty Data Retrieval to enable you to schedule the warranty.

  2. Under Warranty Data Retrieval Schedule, do the following:

    1. Select the check box next to each day of the week that you want to run the warranty.

    2. In the text box, enter the time in HH:MM format.

      The time you enter is your local time. Therefore, if you want to run the inventory at the virtual appliance time zone, calculate the time difference between your local and virtual appliance time zone, and then enter the time appropriately.

  3. To apply the changes and continue, click Next to proceed with the Event and Alarm settings.
