Installing VCEM

For server prerequisites for VCEM installation, including hardware and software prerequisites, see

Installation

prerequisites

or the

HP Insight Software Support Matrix.

IMPORTANT:

VCEM 6.1 supports the Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) browser, but the underlying Virtual

Connect Manager only supports IE8 in IE7 compatibility mode. Using IE8 to perform VCEM Domain
Maintenance tasks that access Virtual Connect Manager might result in failed or incomplete operations. HP
recommends Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) or Firefox 3.x as the preferred browsers for use with VCEM.
For a list of browsers supported by Virtual Connect Manager, see the

HP Virtual Connect for c-Class

BladeSystem User Guide.

When you are upgrading to a new and different CMS, or are moving to a 64-bit CMS, then you might need
to migrate your data by using the Systems Insight Manager data migration tool. If you are upgrading to a
new version of VCEM on the same CMS, data migration with the Systems Insight Manager data migration
tool is not necessary. For more information, see the

HP Systems Insight Manager Installation and Configuration

Guide for Microsoft Windows.

To install VCEM, follow the steps provided in the installation wizard. To access online help, click the ? icon
in the upper right-hand corner of the window.

Removing VCEM

WARNING!

Removing VCEM could have significant implications. Before removing VCEM, verify that no

other upper level management products such as HP Insight Dynamics - VSE are using VCEM capabilities.
Uninstallation of VCEM requires a release of all VC Domains. Removing VCEM also removes all VCEM-centric
historical tracking of individual WWNs and MAC addresses.

IMPORTANT:

Before you remove VCEM, ensure that you have removed all VC Domains from the VC

Domain Groups that are under VCEM control. Otherwise, VCEM removal will not be successful. For more
information see “Removing a VC Domain from a VC Domain Group.”
