Click a Software Status icon to access the HP Version Control Agent (VCA). If the VCA cannot be accessed, help displays describing how to configure the VCA or trust relationship on that system.

There is a Software Status icon for every server except HP-UX.

Version Control Status

The status is based on comparing the installed versions against versions in the repository.

IconStatus

There are different reasons why an Unknown status icon might display:

  • The VCA does not have a HP Version Control Repository Manager (VCRM) configured.

  • The configured 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.

  • A VCA cannot be detected on the system or cannot communicate with the VCA.

Status Values When no Reference Support Pack is Set

Note: The status is that of the latest version of the component in the configured repository.

IconStatus
This update contains critical bug fixes. HP requires that you apply this update at your earliest convenience.
The repository contains a version of this component that might contain bug fixes or new hardware support. HP recommends that you 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 VCRM.

The installed software versions are the same or newer than the versions in the Reference Support Pack.
The Reference Support Pack configured at the VCA is no longer valid at the configured VCRM.

Status Values When a Reference Support Pack is Set and the Exact Match is Selected

IconStatus
The installed version does not match the version of the same item in the Reference Support Pack, and the VCA settings specify that an exact match is expected.
The installed software versions are the same or newer than the versions in the Reference Support Pack.
The Reference Support Pack configured at the VCA is no longer valid at the configured VCRM.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.

In the event a repository has been configured and a Reference Support Pack has not, the status is based on a comparison between the installed software or firmware versions and the newest components available from the configured repository.

In the event a repository and Reference Support Pack have been configured, the status is based on a comparison between the installed software or firmware versions and the software or firmware versions in the Reference Support Pack.
