Question about deploying OpenManage 4.6 onto Vmware
I have downloaded the 4.6 release of OEM, and my plan is to install it onto our Vmware cluster. The cluster consists of three, 3, vSphere 8.0.3 ESXi hosts. According to documentation, there are several prerequisites. Two of these conditions are the following:
Use a VMware vSphere version that is supported ESXi 6.7 or later versions.
Ensure that any ESXi to be deployed is disconnected from vCenter.
These two prerequisites seem to contradict each other. If I am reading this correctly, I would either have to take one of the ESXi hosts out of the cluster in order to accommodate the OEM, or I would need to build either another cluster, or a single ESXi host from scratch.
Can someone provide information on this?

I deployed around 2 dozen OME and the previous OMIVV as well. The second line about ESXi not Connected to vCenter doesnt make any sense.
Dont waste to much time... just install it.
