Re: HP SUM - Managing multiple machines

Hello,

just look at this general documenatation library

http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/solutions/info-library/index.aspx?cat=smartupdate&subcat=hp_spp#.VjoRdvKFNGF

In particular on page 18 ff. "Changing the hpsum.ini file" should explain what vou need.

My first experiences with HPSUM are not really good, but with HPSUM you are able to update drivers for vSphere online.

Under Linux mostly working fine, under windows not really good if not using the administrator account (UAC) (must be equal on both remote and local server)

I am missing VCA/VCRM.

With this tools i can have a quick view to the server firmware/driver status over the smh without the need to start a separate tool.
