About the Version Control Repository Manager
VCRM is an Insight Management Agent that manages a directory of HP software and firmware
components. You can use VCRM without VCA to provide a listing of available software and
firmware to load on the local machine. VCRM is part of the HP Foundation Pack.
VCRM is designed to be used in a one-to-many configuration with a VCA installed on each managed
HP system to manage installed HP software and firmware. In conjunction with Systems Insight
Manager, VCRM, and VCA provides enterprise management of HP software and firmware on HP
ProLiant and Integrity systems. Alone, VCRM can catalog and manage a repository of ProLiant
and Integrity Support Packss and software and firmware for HP ProLiant and Integrity systems.
NOTE: Although you can install ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs or component to the local
machine using VCRM, you cannot install the software on remote servers unless VCA is installed
on the remote server and using VCA.
VCRM permits the following tasks:
• Viewing the contents of the repository
• Configuring Automatic Update to deliver ProLiant software from HP as it becomes available
• Uploading a support pack to the repository from a CD or other accessible media using the
Upload a Support Pack feature
• Creating ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs
• Deleting ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs and components
• Copying ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs and components to another repository
• Configuring components in the repository that are flagged as requiring configuration
• Updating from HP.com now
• Rescanning the repository and rebuilding the catalog
• Managing the log
• Installing selected components at the local (browser client) system
About integration
For software versioning and updating, Systems Insight Manager relies on VCRM and VCA. By
using these applications, Systems Insight Manager provides a single view of the software status
for managed ProLiant or Integrity servers, and it can update software and firmware on those servers
through its powerful query and task features. Updates can be scheduled and applied to specific
sets of servers based on predetermined criteria, including applying updates only to systems that
require an update.
To take full advantage of the software update capabilities of Systems Insight Manager, verify that
the following conditions are met:
• Every managed target server on the network has the VCA installed and is configured to use
a repository.
• Every repository that is to be used has the VCRM installed.
• You can optionally use the automatic update feature of the VCRM to automatically update all
repositories with the latest software from HP.
About software repositories
Updating ProLiant Support Packs and components using VCRM from a single or multiple repositories
saves time and is key to standardizing software maintenance and update procedures on distributed
systems.
