Introduction 8

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.
