Dell EMC OpenManage HPE OMi Operations Connector
The Dell EMC OpenManage HPE OMi Operations Connector provides capabilities to integrate the Dell EMC OpenManage Essential 
(OME) with Micro Focus Operations Manager i (OMi). The Operations Connector for OME helps system and IT administrators to get a 
comprehensive view of Dell EMC devices in a data center by collecting the systems management data about the events and topology 
from OME, and transferring it to OMi. It also supports web console launch of OME directly from the Micro Focus OMi environment to 
perform further troubleshooting, configuration, and management activities for Dell EMC devices.
NOTE: 
HPE Operations Bridge / Operations Manager i (OMi) / Operations Manager are now part of Micro Focus
