The HP Version Control Repository Manager (HP VCRM) enables you to delete selected
Custom Software Baseline, HP Service Pack for ProLiant, ProLiant and Integrity Support
Packs, and components (online and offline).
CAUTION:
Deleting a HP Service Pack for ProLiant, ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs or
component is irreversible. Use this feature with caution. If you delete a file and
want to recover it, you must use one of the manual methods to restore the
component, HP Service Pack for ProLiant, ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs
to the repository.
CAUTION:
The same file can appear in the catalog in multiple places if the component is
applicable in more than one operating system or product family. Deleting any
instance of the item from the catalog removes all occurrences because the
underlying file is deleted.
NOTE:
Deleting components or HP Service Pack for ProLiant, ProLiant and Integrity
Support Packs erases the associated files from the repository directory. If you
want to remove items from the HP VCRM catalog without deleting the files, first
copy the files to a directory not managed by the HP VCRM.
NOTE:
If you have the automatic download feature enabled and you delete files directly
in the file system, they are downloaded again, so always delete them using the
HP VCRM.
