You can configure
inventory schedule by using the configuration wizard or OpenManage
Integration under the OpenManage Integration > Manage > Settings tab.
NOTE To ensure that OMIVV continues to display updated information, Dell
recommends that you schedule a periodic inventory job. The inventory
job consumes minimal resources and does not degrade host performance.
NOTE The chassis
gets discovered automatically after the inventory for all hosts is
run. If the chassis is added to a chassis profile, the chassis inventory
automatically runs. In an SSO environment with multiple vCenter servers,
the chassis inventory runs automatically with every vCenter when the
inventory for any vCenter is run at a scheduled time.
NOTE The settings in this
page are reset to default each time the configuration wizard is invoked.
If you have previously configured a schedule for inventory, ensure
that you replicate the previous schedule in this page before completing
the wizard functions so that the previous schedule is not overridden
by the default settings.
Steps
In the Initial Configuration Wizard, from
the Inventory Schedule dialog box, select Enable Inventory Data Retrieval, if it is not enabled.
By default, Enable Inventory Data Retrieval is enabled.
Under Inventory Data Retrieval Schedule, perform
the following steps:
Select the check box next to each day of the week that you want to
run the inventory.
By default, all the days are selected.
In Data Retrieval Time, enter the time in
HH:MM format.
The time you enter is your local time. Therefore,
if you want to run the inventory at the virtual appliance time zone,
calculate the time difference between your local and virtual appliance
time zone, and then enter the time appropriately.
To apply the changes and continue, click Next.
Once you click next, all details that you
provide in this wizard is saved and you cannot modify the details
from this wizard. You can modify inventory schedule details of the
hosts from the Manage > Settings tab after completing the configuration
from the configuration wizard. See Modifying
inventory job schedules in the OpenManage
Integration for VMware vCenter User’s Guide at Dell.com/support/manuals.
