VSphere 6.5 support
Apologies if this has been addressed but I tried to upgrade my vsphere console to v. 6.5 and was warned that my install of openmanage vcenter integration was out of date. I have 3.1.0.134 installed. I did see an available hotfix but it didn't seem to apply to my issue.
Thank you in advance.

We'll pick up support for vSphere / vCenter 6.5 in our 4.0 release, currently due out in February. With the full deprecation of the vSphere Client in vCenter 6.5, the existing 3.x branch wouldn't be able to properly sync for the full feature set. Unfortuntely until then, we will not have viable 6.5 support.
is the 4.0 release for vcenter 6.5 confirmed for February 2017?
currently only the OMIVV c# client is working in our environment and but web client is not. I'm assuming release 4.0 for 6.5 will be a new installation and design that won't rely on either the c# or web client.

In addition.
Because of major changes we do not support upgrading the appliance. The correct way forward is to backup your 3.1 and deploy the new OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter v4.0 and restore the backup.

Today we are announcing the release of OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter (OMIVV) v4.0, a PowerEdge systems management tool that helps bring the function of OpenManage server lifecycle administration straight into the vCenter Server console. OMIVV v4.0 enables the VMware virtual administrator to have both virtual and physical server administration capabilities available from a primary console of choice. OMIVV v4.0 also provides the ability to auto-detect and deploy vSphere ESXi to new PowerEdge servers and leverage vMotion to perform cluster-level BIOS and firmware updates with minimal downtime to workloads.
With the OMIVV v4.0 release, OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter provides:
