Management Server (CMS), or if the CMS is being retired or decommissioned, all the virtual machine hosts
(VMWare Server, VMware ESX Server, VMware GSX Server, or Microsoft Virtual Server) that are registered
to this CMS must be unregistered on the CMS before uninstalling HP SIM or decommissioning the CMS.

Upgrading VMM

This tool is used to upgrade the HP ProLiant Essentials Virtual Machine Management Pack agent from a
previous version to the current version for all of the previously managed virtual machine hosts without user
interaction.

IMPORTANT:

A HP ProLiant Essentials Virtual Machine Management Pack upgrade temporarily unregisters

the Virtual Machine Management Pack agent. This process deletes all associated information from the
database, including all HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) associations and scheduled task data. The
menu item to upgrade the Virtual Machine Management Pack agent is available only after a Virtual Machine
Management Pack upgrade.

To upgrade the Virtual Machine Management Pack agent:

1.

Select Options

Virtualization ManagementPost VMM Upgrade.

2.

Click Run Now to deploy the agent immediately, or click Schedule to deploy the agent at a designated
time.
