OpenManage 9.1.0 not connecting to ESXi 6.7

Hi,

I have installed the OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-9.1.0-2757.VIB-ESX65i_A00.zip on a ESXi 6.7 version.

Then I upgraded my OMSA on Windows 10 to 9.1.0 and I'm still able to connect to ESXi 5.5 version using old VIBs (8.4 or 8.5) and I'm no able to connect to the recent ESXi.

Is there something else that we need to do?

I've checked the "Ignore Certificate Warnings" checkbox and it takes a long time and does nothing...

@Kavyashree_R

Thank you very much for the link.  Would you also by chance have the link to OMSA 9.1.1?

 

Also, do you know when OMSA will be compatible with older servers, such as the Dell R420 and R620?

Hi,

OMSA 9.1.1 ( VIB ), please find below link
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/drivers/driversdetails?driverId=6NMF1

For Dell PowerEdge R620 and Dell PowerEdge R420, OMSA 9.1.1 is not supported ( OMSA 9.1.0 is supported )

So, it won't support PowerEdge R715 and older servers?

I've downloaded the VIB (OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-9.1.1-2957.VIB-ESX67i_A00.zip), but I won't install it since there is no word on supporting older servers.

PS: Is there a way to use the OpenManage just before I install it without rebooting the server? Is there a service that I can just restart?

Just installed the 9.1.1 VIB on my R710, same thing. Storage devices are showing up as "unknown" and I still cannot connect to it from System Administrator.

As mentioned server is Dell PowerEdge R710, Please find the below link to view compatible OMSA version.

Hello,

The problem many of us are experiencing is that after upgrading to ESXi 6.7, many of our devices are showing up as “Unavailable” and they were all working fine in ESXi 6.5. Many if not all of us no longer have the option to downgrade 6.7 to 6.5. Can you please confirm if this is a known issue on non-supported PowerEdge servers on ESXi 6.7?

Definitely not happy with Dell about this.  If only they owned VMware...Oh wait, they do.

Will there ever be a OMSA VIB for ESXi 6.7 that works on a Dell T630?
