HP Version Control Agent reports
HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) provides a predefined Software and Firmware Baseline Information
report. This report is very useful if you want to print the software and firmware baseline information contained
in the repository which is reported by the HP Version Control Agent (VCA).
The Software and Firmware Baseline Information report displays information provided by the HP Version
Control Agent on Windows and Linux systems. If a system is running HP-UX, the report appears blank since
the VCA is not supported on HP-UX systems.
See “Reporting views” for specific details about the fields that are displayed in Software and Firmware
Baseline Information report.
