Download the HP Insight Agent and put them on the ESX server on the datastore.  Once they're there copy them to the /tmp directory and do the following.  this is for 8.31 but should be the same for 8.4 as well

hp insight mangement installtion instructions

Installation:
Login as the system administrator (root), download the package to a directory on your hard drive. Navigate to that directory and unpack the contents of the package by typing:

tar -zxvf hpmgmt-8.3.1-vmware4x.tgz
This will create two new directories ( ./hpmgmt and ./hpmgmt/831 ) under the current directory. Navigate to the ./hpmgmt/831 directory and view the README file for the installation instructions.
HP has a PDF for this installation on ESX. It's pretty detailed.
