Prerequisites

When you boot the system for the first time, use the TUI to:

  • Accept the EULA.

See Configure the system using the TUI.
CAUTION:If you forget the administrator password, it cannot be recovered from the OpenManage Enterprise appliance.

Steps

  1. Open a supported browser window.
  2. In the Address field, enter the OpenManage Enterprise appliance IP address.
    On the Login screen, the OpenManage Enterprise logo and a security notice are displayed. Administrators can customize the security notice over REST API. For more information, see the OpenManage Enterprise API guide at Dell Developer Portal.
  3. Type the login credentials, and then click Login.
    NOTE:The default username is admin.

Next steps

If you are logging in to OpenManage Enterprise for the first time, the Welcome screen is displayed. Click Initial Settings, and complete the basic configuration setup. See The Welcome to OpenManage Enterprise dialog. To discover the devices, click Discover Devices.
NOTE:By default, after three failed login attempts, your OpenManage Enterprise account gets locked and you cannot log in until the account lockout duration is over. The account lockout duration is 900 s by default. To change this duration, see Set the login security properties.
