OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter Version 4.2

Job Queue

After you configure OMIVV, you can monitor the inventory, warranty jobs, manage deployment jobs, and manage firmware update jobs under the Monitor tab. The inventory and warranty are set up in the Initial Configuration Wizard or from the Settings tab.

The job queue page manages the following jobs:

  • Displaying the submitted server deployment or firmware update jobs.
  • Refreshing the firmware update or deployment jobs, or inventory/warranty history queues.
  • Scheduling an inventory or warranty job.
  • Purging the firmware update or deployment job queue entries.

NOTE: To ensure the inventory/warranty contains up-to-date information, schedule the inventory/warranty job to run once a week at a minimum.

The tasks that you can perform in this page include:

NOTE: For all the mentioned jobs, ensure that they are scheduled again if the appliance time is changed to a future date and reverted.
NOTE: For Basic Health Monitoring, ensure that you reboot the OMIVV appliance. For Extended Health Monitoring, ensure that you disable Extended Monitoring, and then enable it from the OMIVV Administration Console.
