Trouble with connection profile - vCenter Plugin

Hi,

we bought 8x R720 (12G) and we would manage them with the vCenter Plugin from DELL. The advantage of the 12. dell server generation is an agentless (OMSA) management. I created a connection profile and tested them. Only one server can be acknowledged and the others  return "Fail - Unable to contact iDRAC. Check iDRAC credentials, or network connectivity. ".

All server have the same configuration - only the iDRAC IP is different. How can i troubleshoot the problem?

 

Kind regards

Hi derhoeppi,

Did you follow the install and configure instructions from here - en.community.dell.com/.../1963.installing-and-configuring-the-dell-managment-vcenter-plugin.aspx

Also, is OMSA installed on the other servers? Please see this previous thread - en.community.dell.com/.../19456694.aspx

Make sure a connection profile is assigned to each system. After the connection profile is assigned  for each 12G system run an inventory.  This will make sure the  plug -in get the the right IP address of the iDRAC.
