OpenManage Network Integration (OMNI) enables configuration and management of Dell PowerSwitch systems running Dell SmartFabric OS10 within VMware vCenter. With OMNI, networks created in vCenter are automatically configured in the fabric.
The following tasks are done in the OMNI plugin in vCenter:
- View the leaf-spine topology
- View switch status
- Configure server-facing interfaces and port channels
- Configure uplinks to external networks
- Create networks
- Configure routing
- Upgrade SmartFabric OS10
When in use, OMNI can connect to SFSS and provide administrators with a single pane of glass infrastructure that manages SFS and SFSS in the vCenter Web Client. You can also use OMNI without SmartFabric Services.
