Dell, there may be an issue with OMSA 7.3 that prevents people logging in if their passwords have non-alphanumeric characters in them. I'm unable to login as myself into OMSA until I change my password to only letters and numbers. I can't login with other accounts which have special characters as well, but ones without seem to work fine. I didn't have this issue with 7.2. It's affecting both a Server 2008 R2 and Server 2012 machine.

This is an issue on RHEL6 as well. Very annoying!

I have several Dell PowerEdge R320 with OMSA 7.3.0 installed. All of the servers have continual issues with starting all the OMSA services upon reboot specifically the "DSM SA Data Manager" service. Also OpenManage essentials is unable to communicate with OpenManage on these servers after a reboot of the nodes until all the OMSA services are restarted. OpenManage shows a grey question mark for the status of the servers.
All the servers are running Windows 2008 R2 SP1. I have at least 4 servers doing the same thing.
The only thing shown in the system event log about Server Administrator is an event id 1006: Automatic System Recovery (ASR) action was performed. Action performed was: Unknown
Is there a bug in the OMSA 7.3.0 code that needs to be addressed?

I was having the exact same issue described by Cook-User7571. Turns out there is a bug in OMSA 7.3.0 on Windows and Linux with credentials having non-alphanumeric characters in the password. I have verified this in my environment. There is a patch for OMSA, 7.3.0.1, which was released last month and fixes the problem. Luckily only the Server Administrator web portion needs to be updated and not the agent on all ESXi hosts.

The OMSA 7.3.0.1 patch for Linux and Windows fixes the issue with non-alphanumeric characters in passwords. This one has been driving me nuts with my ESXi hosts.

Hi,
I have been working through trying to get OMSA running on a R720 server.
I installed the 7.3.0 version and immediately had problems logging in. (one successful login, but that was all)
I have modified the password policy to avoid special characters and still cannot login. I have tried username, machine name\username, IP address\username. Same problem.
I am now trying to install the 7.3.0.1 patch. No luck. The install gets to a certain point and then rolls back. Is there a log kept somewhere that might show where the issue is?
There are other problems, but I will stay with this one for now.
Thanks.

Sometimes with OMSA, after install, I have found that logging off the server then back in, fixes the problem of being able to use OMSA.
It's not consistent though.

I looked into this further and it seems to be caused by "IE Ehanched Security Configuration" being enabled. When IE ESC is active, automatic detection of Local Intranet sites is not enabled.
Without the local computer being recognized as being part of the Local Intranet zone, single sign on will not work. If I manually add the computer to the list of Local Intranet sites or change the "User Authentication \ Logon" option to "Automatic logon with current user name and password" from the default "Automatic logon only in Intranet zone", single sign on will start working again.

It seems that NTLM single sign on is not working in 7.3 and 7.3.0.1 on Windows Server 2003 systems. Either the background loads, then IE pops up a login dialog or we get a 403 HTTP error. Reloading the URL pops up an IE login dialog. To get in, I need to cancel the IE login dialog. I'm then taken to an OpenManage log in web page. If I enter my username and password there, I am able to get into OpenManage.
