Client computers prerequisites for installing OMCI
Hello,
I have installed Open Manage Essential on one of my servers and activated SNMP to receive meeages from any host in "public" area.
On the client workstations (Precision T3500 Win 7 Pro 64-bit) I have installed OMCI 8.1.1 and also configured SNMP to work in "public" area, sending messages to the IP of the server with OM Essentials.
My issue is that the OM Essentials can Discover the servers but only one of the workstations. I have found no difference of config between the discovered workstation and the other ones.
On the servers I have installed OMSA.
Can someone explain to me witch are the prerequisites for installing OMCI?! I read a lot the last few days about that but I have not discovered the solution.
Regards,
Andrei

Hi Andrei and thanks for the question.
A few quick thorughts:
- Please visit www.delltechcenter.com/ome and look for the Client whitepaper (search for the word client). It should answer most of your questions around discovery of client devices.
- Use WMI in your discovery wizard for client
- You might also try the Dell TroubleShooting tool (installed on the OME desktop). There is a WMI test in this tool.
The wp mentions this, but remember, use WMI, there are no SNMP alerts supported for client devices. But you _can_ pull logs.
Thanks,
Rob
