1. Enter admin for both the default username and password.
2. If it is a first-time login, the system prompts for password change.
After the passwords are successfully updated, self-signed certificates are created. You can change the certificates later with
OMNI management menu options, see Generate and Install SSL certificate.
NOTE: The sudo password is the same as the password set for the admin user.
NOTE: Root user is disabled by default. To set the password to enable root user, use the OMNI VM console CLI menu. You
can only access root user through the console.
Setup OMNI
This information describes how to set up the OMNI appliance with the required network interface configurations.
NOTE: The OMNI initial configuration setup can be performed using the vCenter OMNI VM console only.
Dell Technologies recommends checking the docker private network setting before setting up OMNI to avoid any conflict with
any of the external networks to which OMNI is connected.
NOTE:
OMNI default docker private subnet is 172.16.0.1/16. Dell Technologies recommends using 172.16.0.1/24 (x.x.x.x/24)
IP address for docker private network setting.
The conflicts occur when:
The ens160 and ens192 interfaces have IP addresses assigned from the docker private network (172.16.0.0/16).
Any external entity such as vCenter instance, SFS instance, OME-Modular, NSX-T has IP address that is assigned in the
docker private network.
OMNI is connected to a larger network in which one or more subnetworks IP range overlaps with the docker private
network.
If there is a network conflict, OMNI cannot communicate with the other entities. To avoid the conflict, change the docker
private network setting, see Configure docker private setting.
