SSH Key Implementation
OME 4.1.0 build 237
Servers: mostly gen 15 w/ some 14, iDRAC9 (fw is all over the place), RHEL8
OME is having problems pulling info from the idracs, chief among these is SSH discovery failures... Come to find out that SSH keys are used on this network to protect root credentials. A coworker tried and concluded that, short of hacking into the appliance, there is no way to create or export an ssh key on OME.
Can anyone suggest a way to resolve this and be able to pull information from iDRACs using SSH keys.
Thanks!

Hello,
First I would recommending you verify Prerequisites are met
Management ports and protocols
Firewall exceptions
Page 25-28
Next - To Create a device discovery job
Be sure to check this box to configure OME receiving alerts:
#8. Select Enable trap reception from discovered iDRAC servers and MX7000 chassis to enable the OpenManage Enterprise receive the incoming traps from the discovered servers and MX7000 chassis.
