Hi,
I have recently installed OME 2.1 as part of a process to improve management and tracking of our Dell servers and also to provide up-to-date and reliable data for our CMDB. The servers are gens 11-13 and iDracs correspondingly are 6-8. Each runs either Windows (2008r2 / 2012), Linux (Centos / RHE) or ESX for an OS. All have OMSA running.
Discovery and Inventory (using WS-Man) works fine on the iDracs, but the Host name of the server itself is not included in the data returned. My question is how can I get the host name returned as part of this information. I'm happy for OME to show the DNS name of the iDrac, I'd just like it to also return the server host name as a field in one of the tables.
I have looked at using SNMP for discovery of the servers but v2 is non-compliant in our environment. Is there any other way I can use OME to get this information, or an alternative product that can?
Thanks,
Tom
