Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available.

The initial setup is a bit complicated. It needs a technician who is very aware of the flow and how to officially set up the flow chart, etc.
