HP Smart Update Manager - Manual (Page 20)

Selecting the targets
The Select Targets screen automatically detects the local system running HP SUM and adds it to
the targets list. To find new targets, click Find Targets or Add Single Target. For more information,
see
“Finding and discovering targets” (page 22) or “Adding a single target” (page 22) .
If you have an enclosure that has different target types that share credentials and need to be
updated at the same time, create a group to manage them. For more information on creating and
editing groups, see
“Managing groups” (page 23) .
The table displays the following target information:
•
Check box—Targets with selected check boxes are updated. Click the check box to select or
clear a target for update.
•
Target Name—This field displays the IP address of the target or group.
•
Status—This field displays a message indicating whether or not the target is ready to be
updated. Enter the credentials for each target you are updating. For more information, see
“Entering target credentials” (page 22) .
NOTE: The target status Ready means that HP SUM can detect the target, and is able to
take inventory of the target. No analysis occurs until you click Next.
•
Last Updated—This field displays the last time the target was updated.
•
Associated Targets—This field displays the associated devices of the target.
