15 HCM and Management application support on ESXi systems

The two ports described above are part of the range of ports reserved for use by the Management application server, configurable during installation from the Server Configuration wizard. Refer to the Installation and Migration Guide for server configuration instructions.

Adding host adapter credentials for ESXi

CIM-based discovery is available for ESXi versions 4.1 and later. The CIM server transport does not support operating systems other than ESXi.

NOTE

CIM server credentials are optional. If you do not provide credentials, basic authentication on the CIM server is disabled and the Management application attempts discovery without authentication.

The Protocol, Port, User ID, and Password fields on the Add Host Adapters dialog box are persisted when changing from HCM agent to CIM Server (ESXi only).
