5 Installing HP SMH using HPSUM
The HP Smart Update Manager (HPSUM) utility enables you to deploy ProLiant or Integrity Support
Pack software and firmware components from a single, easy-to-use graphical user interface. The
utility enables you to deploy and maintain ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack and Smart Components
on a local server or one or more remote servers. This utility enables legacy support of existing
software and firmware components while simplifying the overall deployment process. The utility
also provides installation logic and version control that automatically check for dependencies,
installing only the correct updates for optimal configuration.
ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack contains numerous files. All files must be present in the same
directory as the HPSUM.EXE program for the PSP or ISP to be properly installed. You can install
HP SMH as a part of the complete ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack, or you can install the HP
SMH component individually. The HP SMH component also provides support for preconfiguration,
which enables you to configure and save the configuration as part of the component itself before
installing on target machines.
NOTE: Installation of a preconfigured component overwrites the configuration settings of an
existing HP SMH installation. If you want to retain existing settings, do not preconfigure the
component.

2. Click Start Inventory button. The Select Installation Host(s) screen appears when the inventory
