manner, you must have the user name and password available for each remote server available. Alternatively, you can use a domain account on the local administrative system that has administrator privileges on the target servers. • The beginning and ending IP addresses entered for the range of targets must both be on the same subnet. NOTE: HP Smart Update Manager requires the user to be logged in using Administrator credentials. A user account elevated to "Run as administrator" in most cases does not have sufficient rights because access to protected system files and the Windows registry, which is needed to deploy most firmware and driver updates, is restricted. If the logged in account is unable to perform the net use *\\server\ADMIN$ for Microsoft Windows targets, you do not have sufficient privileges to run HP SUM to remote targets. Deployment of some software updates on a local server may still be possible in some instances, but is not recommended. 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 targets. • Enable the network ports that HP SUM uses. For more information, see "Enabling ports in HP Smart Update Manager (on page 67)." Minimum requirements for Linux x86 servers To successfully use HP SUM to discover perform dependency checks on targets running a Linux operating system, the following must be available: • A local administrative system with 1 GB of memory • glibc 2.2.4-26 or later • gawk 3.1.0-3 or later • sed 3.02-10 or later • pciutils-2.1.8-25.i386.rpm or later Be sure that the following platform-specific compatibility libraries are also installed. • For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4x86 servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) • For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 AMD64/EM64T servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) • For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 x86 servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) • For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 AMD64/EM64T servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) • For SLES 10 x86 servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) • For SLES 10 AMD64/EM64T servers: o libnl (required for QLogic and Emulex drivers) Introduction 8

HP Smart Update Manager requires the user to be logged in using Administrator
