The following sections discuss deployment from HP SUM. For more information on planning an
update, see the HP Smart Update Best Practices Overview, HP Smart Update Best Practices Planning
Guide, or HP Smart Update Best Practices Implementer Guide, available on the HP website:
http://www.hp.com/go/hpsum/documentation.
NOTE: HP SUM does not support deploying updates from a Linux host to a remote Windows
node. Run HP SUM on a Windows host to deploy updates to Windows nodes.
Running HP SUM
HP SUM provides the following modes:
GUI—For firmware and software deployments
Scripted—For silent firmware and software deployments
HP SUM supports local and remote deployments. HP SUM runs in Windows and Linux in online
and offline mode. For more information about deployment modes, see “Deployment modes (page
15).
NOTE: You cannot run HP SUM on a Windows Hyper-V system. Run HP SUM on a supported
Windows or Linux system, and select the Hyper-V system as a node.
NOTE: Before deploying software updates to a server, be sure that a recent backup of the server
is available in the event the deployment procedure fails.
For information on the minimum requirements to run HP SUM, see the HP Smart Update Manager

Deploying HP Integrity firmware bundles with HP SUM
You can use HP SUM to deploy components delivered with the HP Integrity firmware bundles.
Deploying firmware to HP Integrity servers is done remotely and is the same as deploying other
firmware, such as OA, with the following exceptions:
Specify the IP address of the Monarch (primary) OA on Superdome 2, or the Monarch iLO 3
management processor on multi-blade servers.
Specify the server IP address as the target to update I/O firmware on HP-UX servers. You can
only update remote HP-UX targets.
For more information on HP Integrity firmware bundles, see the Manage HP Integrity Servers
Firmware Updates website at http://www.hp.com/go/smartupdate/integrity.
