RPM Package Manager
The RPM Package Manager (RPM) is a powerful command line-driven package management system capable
of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating computer software packages. Each software
package consists of an archive of files along with information about the package like its version, a description,
and the like. There is also a related Application Program Interface (API), permitting advanced developers
to bypass shelling out to a command line and to manage such transactions from within a native coding
language. RPM has been integrated into HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) through the Deploy menu.
The following procedures are available for RPM within HP SIM:
•
