Nimble dHCI 5.3.1 vCenter plugin

[NOS205]

We have a two Nimble dHCI deployed and configured them Enhanced Link Mode. The second vCenter deployed, the vCenter Nimble Plugin is missing some options such as Home, Inventory, Events and Update? The Nimble is running  5.3.1.100-816431.

I've tried unregistering and re-registering via the array GUI. Still no joy.

Hi NOS205

Thank you for coming on HPE Community forums.

DHCI is a tightly integrated appliance. The second vcenter may not have the dHCI plugin installed. Instead, it may have just installed the regular plugin which is expected in my opinion.

Thanks. Is there anyway of installing/enabling the dHCI plugin?

Hi NOS205

Thank you for coming to the HPE Community forums.

The DHCI deployment script during the initial deployment will install the plugin automatically on the vCenter.
It should be validated with the support, for any possible manual installation of the plugin on the second vCenter.

Hi Mahesh,

Thanks for the response. With the help of an excellent Nimble support representative we managed to get it sorted. 

Thanks

Hi,

we have a customer running on Nimble 3.0.7 which we would like to upgrade to the 5.3. Do you still have the image somewhere?

Thx.

Since this has nothing to do with the topic, please start a new one.

Hi Sheldon,

I know my question has "nothing" to do with the initial message. But since the CS500 is out of support there is no official way to acquire the firmware. So I'm looking in the community for people who have questions about this version, hoping they still have the files ...  I don't need any support on it, only the firmware itself. We need to get this one up and running again ...

I will create a new topic.

Thx,

Koen.
