minimize the impact on system resources, HP SUM does not recommend adding other baselines
until the baseline inventory process finishes.
Creating a custom baseline
Creating a custom baseline allows you to deploy specific updates, minimize the size of update
baselines or bootable and non-bootable ISOs, and standardize the updates that you deploy to
your environment.
NOTE: To create a custom bootable ISO, you must have a bootable HP SPP or HP SUM ISO
available in your source baselines.
1. From the Baseline Library screen, click Actions→Create Custom.
2. In the Description text box, enter a description for the baseline. The maximum length for the
description is 50 characters.
3. In the Version boxes, use the navigation arrows to create a version number, for example
2013.5.21.
NOTE: The Baseline Name is automatically generated by combining the description and
version.
4. In the Output Location field, click Browse to navigate to a directory where you want to save
the baseline.
NOTE: HP SUM does not support creating a new directory when it creates the custom
baseline. Create the new directory outside of HP SUM.
NOTE: Do not save more than one custom baseline in a directory.
