OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter

Virtual Appliance

NOTE: : When deploying the Server Administrator agent using the Fix non-compliant vSphere hosts link available from the Compliance window in the Dell Management Center, the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter starts the http Client service and enables port 8080 on and releases after ESXi 5.0 to download OMSA VIB and install it. Once the OMSA installation is completed, the service automatically stops and the port is closed.

Table 1. Supported Protocols and Ports on Virtual ApplianceThe following table describes the ports in the order of the port number, the protocol, the port type, the maximum encryption level, the direction, the destination, the usage of the port, and the description.
