RPM Package Manager
The HP Insight Control server deployment is a powerful command-line package management system
capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating computer software packages.
Each software package consists of an archive of files and information about the package, (such
as its version, a description, and so forth). There is also a related API that permits advanced
developers to bypass to use a shell at the command line and to manage such transactions from
within a native coding language. HP Insight Control server deployment is integrated into HP SIM
through the Deploy menu.
The following procedures are available for HP Insight Control server deployment within HP SIM:
• Install Package
For more information, see Installing RPM.
• Query Package
For more information, see Querying RPM.
