Enabling Server Administrator Services on the
Managed System
The Server Administrator Web Server communicates with the VMware ESXi
system through the Server Administrator Common Interface Model (CIM)
provider. The Server Administrator CIM provider is an Original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) provider on the VMware ESXi system. CIM OEM
providers are disabled by default on VMware ESXi 4.0 and ESXi 4.1. You
must enable the CIM OEM providers on the VMware ESXi system before
accessing it using Server Administrator Web Server.
NOTE: In ESXi 4.1 U2, ESXi 5.0 and ESXi 5.0 P1 Dell OpenManage CIM OEM provider
is enabled by default.
