Understanding How to Configure or Edit the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter

After you complete the basic installation of the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter, the Initial Configuration Wizard is displayed when you click on the Dell OpenManage Integration icon. Use the Initial Configuration Wizard to configure the Settings on first launch. For subsequent instances use the Settings page. Also, from the Initial Configuration Wizard you can edit the settings of warranty, inventory, events and alarms. Although using the Initial Configuration Wizard is the most common method used, you can also accomplish this task through the appliance's OpenManage Integration → Manage → Settings page in the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter. For more information on the Initial Configuration Wizard, see, OpenManage Integration for VMWare vCenter User Guide.

  1. vCenter Selection
  2. Creating A New Connection Profile
