The Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack is an all-in-one vulnerability assessment and patch

management tool. It enables you to gain the upper hand in the war against hackers, worms, and Trojan
software that exploit software security vulnerabilities by:

Enhancing system lifecycle management by incorporating vulnerability assessment and patching as
integral parts of the system management process.

Accelerating resolution of vulnerabilities by reducing the research time to understand the criticality of
the vulnerability and the expected behavior for patches and fixes.

Reducing the risk of security threats by automating the acquisition, scheduling the deployment, and
ensuring that the patches remain in place continuously enforcing the persistence (desired state) of

patches.

The Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack and HP SIM can be installed on a single server (referred to

as a shared configuration) or on a separate server (referred to as a distributed configuration).
The Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack is included on the Insight Control Data Center Edition

DVD. For more information, see the HP ProLiant Essentials Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack User

Guide, or the HP website (

HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant

The HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant (SMP) enables administrators to upgrade or replace

an existing server blade through server migration. SMP provides an automated, accurate, and affordable

method of migrating existing server blades and their content to the latest server technologies.
SMP automates the migration of the operating system, applications, and data from one server blade to

another without errors, eliminating the need for manual redeployment of these elements on the new server

blade. During the migration process, the software automatically loads new drivers, required for boot, on

the destination server blade. The wizard-based user interface simplifies the migration process and requires

little experience or training.
For more information about the SMP, see the HP website (

HP ProLiant Essentials Performance Management Pack

HP ProLiant Essentials Performance Management Pack (PMP) is an integrated performance management

solution that detects and analyzes hardware bottlenecks on HP ProLiant servers, select HP Integrity servers

and MSA500/MSA1000/MSA1500 shared storage devices.
PMP provides the tools you need to receive proactive notification of building bottlenecks, and debug

existing performance issues. PMP is automatically installed with HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM)
and is integrated with HP SIM. No software installation on the monitored servers is required, other than

the Insight Management Agents. PMP analyzes performance information to determine if there is a building

or existing restriction. You can display this information interactively, log the information to a database for

later analysis or reporting, and set up proactive notification using the HP Systems Insight Manager
notification mechanism.
