Software and firmware

Software and firmware should be updated before using the server for the first time, unless any installed

software or components require an older version. For system software and firmware updates, download the

Version control

The VCRM and VCA are web-enabled Insight Management Agents tools that HP SIM uses to schedule

software update tasks to the entire enterprise.

•

VCRM manages the repository for SPP. Administrators can view the SPP contents or configure VCRM to

automatically update the repository with internet downloads of the latest software and firmware from
HP.

•

VCA compares installed software versions on the node with updates available in the VCRM managed
repository. Administrators configure VCA to point to a repository managed by VCRM.
