When devices are discovered in OpenManage Enterprise, they are automatically categorized into
system groups based on their properties. For the devices mentioned:
PowerEdge MX740c blades and MX7000 chassis: These are considered modular systems because
they are part of a modular infrastructure.
VxRail clusters: These are categorized as HCI (Hyper-Converged Infrastructure) Appliances due to
their nature as integrated systems combining compute, storage, and networking.
Therefore, the eight PowerEdge MX740c blades and the MX7000 chassis would be placed in the
‘Modular Systems’ group, while the two VxRail clusters would be located in the ‘HCI Appliances’
group. The ‘Servers’ group typically includes standalone servers, which might also include the
PowerEdge MX740c blades if they are considered individually.
The default system groups in OpenManage Enterprise are designed to help administrators quickly
identify and manage devices based on their type and role within the infrastructure12.
