NOTE: For ESXi8.0 and ESXi7.0, Server Administrator VIB name is change to openmanage NOTE: For ESXi8.0 and ESXi7.0, Server Administrator component name will be as DEL-openmanage NOTE: Restart of the Host OS is not required after installing or uninstalling the Server Administrator VIB/Component package. NOTE: After an ESXi Server Administrator VIB/Component installation, the CIM services are restarted automatically to load the Server Administrator providers (DCIM service). It is recommended to wait for 2 - 3 minutes before logging in from any Server Administrator web server. Else, the Server Administrator web server login to the ESXi host may fail. NOTE: With an installed ESXi8.0 or ESXi7.0 Server Administrator, SFCB restart takes approximately 60 seconds for restarting the CIM services on ESXi OS.
