To start using the HP Version Control Repository Manager (HP VCRM), use the following

steps as a guideline for installing and configuring your machines properly:

The recommended installation for the HP VCRM is on a single system that has a reliable, high-

performance network connection between it and all managed systems that have the Version

Control Agent installed. If the Auto Update feature is being used, that system must have

Internet access.

1. Verify that your system meets minimum requirements.

2. Install and configure the HP SMH. For more information regarding the System

Management Homepage (HP SMH), refer to the HP System Management Homepage

Installation and Configuration Guide.

3. Install and configure the HP VCRM on your selected system.

4. Install and configure the HP VCA on the target systems. Installing the HP VCRM

before installing the HP VCA enables you to configure the HP VCA to use data in the

repository specified by way of the Change Settings link in the HP VCA, a Replicate

Agent Settings task in HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM), or preconfiguring the

HP VCA component and installing the component with the preconfigured settings. For

more information regarding installing the HP VCRM, refer to the

http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/agents/documentation.html.

5. Browse to the HP SMH located at

https://hostname:2381 to log in.
