HP Version Control Agent User Guide

b. Automatic Reboot. Enables the HP Version Control Agent (VCA) to automatically

reboot the system if the installation requires a reboot when finished. In the case of a

ProLiant and Integrity Support Pack installation, this event occurs after all component

installations complete without error. If any component installation returns an error result,

the reboot will not occur. Inspect the VCA Log after an installation error to determine

whether the system must be restarted. If you do not select Automatic Reboot, look at the

log to determine if a reboot is needed. If the log indicates a reboot is required, manually

reboot the server for the installations to complete.

Important: When a task completes, be sure to read the details in the log to determine

whether a reboot is required.

3. Click Install to begin the installation or Cancel to abort the installation and return to the Home

page.

Note: All components are downloaded before installation begins. An error in the download

process causes the installation to fail, and no component installations occur. An error in the

installation of a single component does not stop the installation of the rest of the components

from a ProLiant and Integrity Support Pack, but it does prevent an automatic reboot from

occurring. In Windows, if an installation of a single component does not complete within 15

minutes, a timeout occurs and the component installation is terminated.

Note: Only one installation task can progress at a time. Clicking the Install icon while another

installation is in progress redirects you to the Log page for status of the current installation in

progress.
