Management Compliance

To view and manage hosts in OMIVV, each host must meet certain criteria. If the hosts do not meet the compliance criteria, OMIVV will not manage and monitor them. OMIVV displays details about the noncompliance host, and enables you to fix the noncompliance, where applicable.

The host is non-compliant if:

  • The host is not associated to a Host Credential Profile.
  • The Collect System Inventory on Reboot (CSIOR) feature is disabled or has not been run, which requires a manual reboot.
    NOTE The CSIOR status is not determined when hosts are managed using a chassis.
  • The SNMP trap destination of the host is not configured to the OMIVV appliance IP address. The failure in SNMP trap destination setting might be when iDRAC or host credentials that are provided in host credential a profile is invalid. Or, there are no free slots in iDRAC, or iDRAC Lockdown Mode is turned on—only in 14G and later hosts.
  • OMIVV fails to enable the WBEM service on hosts running ESXi 6.5 and later.
  • The iDRAC firmware version is lower than 2.50.50.50. The iDRAC version 2.50.50.50 or higher is required only to use the system profile feature.
  • iDRAC license is not compatible (iDRAC Express is the minimum requirement). The servers without a compatible iDRAC license cannot be used for monitoring and updating the firmware.
CAUTION Even if non-compliant, the hosts in the Lockdown mode are not displayed in the compliance tests. Ensure to manually check the compliance level. A message is displayed when manually checked. Ignore the message. They do not display because their compliance status cannot be determined. Ensure to check the compliance of these systems manually. In such a scenario, a warning message is displayed.
On the Management Compliance page, you can perform the following tasks:
  • Fix compliance. For more information, see Fix a non-compliant host.
  • Run inventory. The run inventory job link is active if the iDRAC status is non-compliant or Unknown for any one of the hosts that are associated to a host credential profile.
  • Renew iDRAC License. For information, see Fix iDRAC license compliance.
  • Add OEM hosts. For more information about adding OEM hosts, see Add OEM hosts.
