HP SUM User Interface 37
• Updates to be Installed—The components in this section can be installed on your system.
• Optional Updates—The components in this section are not selected for installation by default, even if the
product is not already installed or is installed but not up-to-date. To include the component in the
installation set, you must select the component.
• No Device Driver Installed—The devices supported by the components in this section are detected on
the system, but HP Smart Update Manager requires a device driver before the component can be made
available for installation. Install the device driver.
Multi-session installation appears on the Select Items to be Installed screen under certain combinations of
dependencies between the components selected for installation.
• Component B depends on the product in component A, in a manner that requires the product to be
already installed and active for component B to install.
• Component A requires a reboot after installation to become active.
• A version of the product in component A is not already installed or the version is not one of the correct
versions to satisfy the dependency.
If all of the previous conditions are true, then HP SUM detects it and a notification to reboot appears to
continue the installation. All installable components appear in the original update list, but only the
components shown before the notification are installed. You must reboot to complete the installation and then
restart HP SUM to continue the installation process.
