HP Version control agent bug

HP VCA shows drivers with old version, but can not install new ones. For example in my HP DL360G4 it was showing "HP ProLiant Smart Array SAS/SATA Controller Driver for Windows Server 2003" version 5.0.0.32, but when I try to install update to version 6.6.0.32, the system would tell that
"The software will not be installed on this system because the required
hardware is not present in the system or the software/firmware doesn't
apply to this system."

Workaround is to rename folder Discovery in C:\hp\hpsmh\data\cgi-bin\vcagent.

I believe definitive solution will come with VCA patch soon.
