Creating A New Connection Profile using the Initial Configuration
Wizard
A connection profile stores the credentials that the virtual appliance uses to communicate with Dell servers. Each Dell
server must be associated with a connection profile to be managed by the OpenManage Integration for VMware
vCenter. You may assign multiple servers to a single connection profile. Creating the Connection Profile is similar
between the Configuration Wizard and from the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter, Settings option.
Prior to using the Active Directory credentials with a connection profile, the Active Directory user account must exist in
Active Directory and this account must already be enabled in iDRAC. This wizard is not for creating Active Directory
accounts or enabling Active Directory on iDRAC.
NOTE: You are not allowed to create a connection profile if the number of hosts added exceeds the license limit for
