New SIM installation has empty Version Control Repository

[Doug Lindsey]

Start: Brand new SIM SP5 installation, using MSDE. Targets have no agents installed.

I performed a discovery and found the target machines.

I am now attempting to install agents on those machines from the central console. First target is a DL385G1.

1. Deploy->Deploy Drivers, Firmware, and Agents, -> Install Proliant Support Pack Install
2. I select the target system.
3. I enter valid credentials.
4. On the "Select a Windows Support Pack" screen, I receive the message "There are no Support Packs in this repository".

Why aren't there any support packs in this repository? If this error message is true, how do I get them into the repository?
