Select the checkbox beside Import Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate for HP SIM to trust the HP
SMH of the managed system. This option is only valid for HP-UX and Linux operating systems.
• Configure Version Control Agent (VCA) Select this option to configure the HP VCA to point to
the HP VCRM, where the repository of software and firmware is located, enabling version
comparison and software updates. This option is available only for Windows systems. This section
can be accessed in the Configuration section of all CMS systems including Windows, HP-UX,
and Linux.
To configure HP VCA:
1. In the Select the system where the HP VCRM is installed field, select a server from the
dropdown list.
2. In the User Name field, enter the user name to access the HP VCRM. This user cannot be the
default administrator user, and must have administrative privileges.
3. In the Password field, enter the password to access the HP VCRM.
4. In the Confirm Password field, re-enter the password for the HP VCRM.
• Set administrator password for Insight Management Agents version 7.1 or earlier Select this
option to repair the administrator password on all Insight Management Agents installed on the
target systems as applicable for Windows and Linux systems.
NOTE: Do not set this option if you have Insight Management Agents 7.2 or later installed.
NOTE: If the remote system is running HP-UX, this option is not executed on the remote system
because it is not applicable on HP-UX systems. If you are configuring only HP-UX target systems,
you do not need to set this option.
If you select this option, you must complete the following steps:
a. In the Password field, enter the new administrator password.
b. In the Confirm Password field, re-enter the new administrator password.
6. Click Next. The Step 4: Enter credentials page appears. The credentials specified on this page are
for a privileged account on the target system.
