HP Insight Vulnerability and Patch Manager Software - Manual (Page 20)

Remaining Vulnerability and Patch Manager files
A Vulnerability and Patch Manager uninstallation does not remove all Vulnerability and Patch Manager files
from the server. The following files remain after uninstallation:
•
Target systems:
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HPCA\ManagementAgent\nvdkit.exe
•
•
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HPCA\ManagementAgent\rma.tkd
•
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HPCA\ManagementAgent\rma.log
•
Systems Insight Manager/Vulnerability and Patch Manager server:
Manager_folder>\hpwebadmin\webapps\ROOT\mxportal\VPM\column\vpmcolmain.jps
•
•
Manager_folder>\hpwebadmin\webapps\ROOT\mxportal\VPM\column\vpmbase.html
•
Manager_folder>\hpwebadmin\webapps\ROOT\mxportal\home\STATScanner 1
The Vulnerability and Patch Manager Results directory remains only if you select to retain Vulnerability and
Patch Manager data during the uninstallation.
Reinstalling Vulnerability and Patch Manager
If an updated version of Vulnerability and Patch Manager is installed after a previous version has been
uninstalled, the entitlement list could be lost for all managed target systems. To prevent this, be sure that you
uninstall and reinstall the updated VPM Patch Agent to all target systems.
