Best method for deploying HP agents to servers with agents already installed?
Would like to know best method to upgrade HP agents on servers.
Is it:
"Deploy", "Deploy driver,firmware and agents", "Install ProLiant Support Pack Install"
Choose my target/targets. After the windows credentials choose Software bundles for windows2000 which is 7.40A and the hit next.
Running: Systems Insight Manager 5.0 with SP2 -Windows
Is this the way i should go, or I am thinking wrong here.
Regards
Johan

Re: Best method for deploying HP agents to servers with agents already installed?
Download the PSP to your VCRM. Configure the VCAs so they know there VCRM.
After that you can use the "Deploy - Deploy driver,firmware and agents - Install Software and Firmware ..."
The advantage of this is that you can also see the Software Status of your ProLiants in SIM.
See this document for detailed informations:

Re: Best method for deploying HP agents to servers with agents already installed?
Interesting. I was about to post a similar question. After reviewing the doc linked in the original reply, I'm still not clear on one item. Is there actaully a way to push firmware to a host, or is the idea of having the firmware loaded in the VCR simply to provide a central place where it can be downloaded to hosts from?

It's not possible to push firmware for NICs and Fibre Channel Adapters yet, but there are additional utilities that make that a simple task as well.

There may be newer agents but you will only get these traps if HP deems them as critical.

Re: Best method for deploying HP agents to servers with agents already installed?
I've not delved into the database itself to look.
I did a quick report on all Installed Controllers but that doesn't pick up the F/W level of either NICs or HBA's. So at this point the only way I know is the manual approach.
The Firmware level is reported in the Managment Homepage for the HBA's, but not for the NIC's so that info. might be in the database.

Re: Best method for deploying HP agents to servers with agents already installed?
Current environment - all servers have reporting agents versions 6.x - 7.x going to Insight Mgr 7.2.
We want to upgrade.
Can the agents talk to v. 5.0 without upgrading them?
Can one upgrade the agents without upgrading firmware etc?
thank you.
