HP Integrity rx2800 i2 Server - Manual (Page 8)

Introduction 8
HP recommends that the user name and password for the administrator account on each host server are
the same as those on the local administrative system. If administrator privileges are not set up in this
manner, you must have the user name and password for each remote server available. Alternatively,
you can use a domain account on the local administrative system that has administrator privileges on
the host servers.
• The beginning and ending IP addresses entered for the range of hosts (targets) must be on the same
subnet.
• To install firmware on HP Integrity BL860c/BL870c/BL890c i2 Servers, you must run HP SUM from an
x86 or x86 Linux machine. You cannot deploy firmware on a Windows Integrity system from a
Windows Integrity system.
NOTE: HP Smart Update Manager requires a true Administrator login and not an elevated RUN
AS Administrator. If you are unable to perform the net use * \\server\ADMIN$ for Microsoft
Windows® target servers, you do not have sufficient privileges to run HP Smart Update Manager.
NOTE: When attempting to use the remote deployment functionality of HP SUM on any edition of
Windows Server® 2008 or Windows Vista®, you must ensure that the File and Print Services
feature is enabled and that the File and Print Services exception has been enabled in the
Windows® firewall. Failure to do so prevents HP SUM from deploying remote Windows® target
servers.
