To start using the HP Version Control Repository Manager (HP VCRM) and the HP Version Control Agent (HP VCA), use the following steps as a guideline for installing and configuring your machines properly:
Verify that your system meets minimum requirements. For more information regarding minimum requirements, refer to the HP Version Control Installation and Configuration Guide.
Install and configure the HP SMH. For more information regarding the HP SMH, refer to the HP System Management Homepage Installation and Configuration Guide.
Install and configure the HP VCRM with an HP Service Pack for ProLiant on a machine accessible from the server where you are installing the HP VCA. One HP VCRM can support many HP VCAs, so in most cases, you need only one repository. However, multiple repositories might be required for large or widely dispersed enterprises.
Install and configure the HP VCA on the target system. Installing the HP VCRM before installing the HP VCA enables you to configure the HP VCA to use data in the repository specified from the Change Settings link in the HP VCA. For more information regarding installing the HP VCRM, refer to the Version Control Installation and Configuration Guide.
