central file store. SSM then automatically updates any down-revision system software on the networked
PCs to the later levels available in the file store. Since SSM only allows distribution of SoftPaq updates
to the correct client system models, administrators can confidently and efficiently use SSM to keep
system software updated.
System Software Manager integrates with enterprise software distribution tools such as HP Client
Automation solutions, HP Client Manager from Symantec, and Microsoft Systems Management Server
(SMS). Using SSM, you can distribute customer-created or third-party updates that have been packaged
in the SSM-format.
SSM may be downloaded at no charge by visiting
http://www.hp.com/go/ssm.
NOTE: SSM does not currently support remote ROM flash on systems that have Windows BitLocker
Drive Encryption enabled and are using TPM measurements to protect the BitLocker keys because
flashing the BIOS would invalidate the trust signature that BitLocker created for the platform. Disable
BitLocker via Group Policy in order to flash the system BIOS.
You can enable BitLocker support without TPM measurements of BIOS to avoid invalidating the
BitLocker keys. HP recommends you keep a secure backup of the BitLocker credentials in case of
recovery emergencies.
