Upgrade notes
Chapter 2 in the HP Insight Management 7.2 Installation and Configuration Guide describes the
Insight Management installation and upgrade procedure. Some steps in Chapter 2 are not required
for an upgrade. Therefore, HP recommends that you read the documentation when you perform
an upgrade because it indicates when a step does not apply.
