StatusIcon
There are different reasons why an Unknown status icon
might appear:
• HP VCA does not have an HP VCRM configured.
• The configured HP VCRM is not reachable or does not
respond to HTTP requests (for example, the system or
service is down or the password has been changed).
• An HP VCA cannot be detected on the system or cannot
communicate with the HP VCA.
NOTE: The status is that of the latest version of the component in the configured repository.
The following table shows the status returned by HP VCA indicating whether or not the software
and firmware installed on the system matches what is in the repository.

This update contains critical bug fixes. Apply this update
at your earliest convenience.
The repository contains a version of this component that
might contain bug fixes or new hardware support. Review
information about this version and apply this update
appropriately.
The installed software versions are the same or newer than
the latest versions available at the HP VCRM.
When the overall software status indicates that an item is not current, identify the software or
firmware items that have available updates, read the item descriptions, and determine whether
the update is appropriate for the server.
If a repository is configured and a Insight Remote Support Advanced is not, the status is based on
a comparison between the installed software or firmware versions and the newest components
available from the configured repository.
If a repository and Insight Remote Support Advanced are configured, the status is based on a
comparison between the installed software or firmware versions and the software or firmware
versions in the Insight Remote Support Advanced.
