NOTE: HP recommends that the user name and password for the administrator account on each target server be 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 available for each remote server accessible. Alternatively, you can use a domain account on the local administrative system that has administrator privileges on the target servers. NOTE: HP SUM 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. • The beginning and ending IP addresses entered for the range of targets must both be on the same subnet. NOTE: When attempting to use the remote deployment functionality of HP SUM on any edition of Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, 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 to remote Windows targets. • Enable the network ports that HP SUM uses. For more information, see the Enabling ports section in the HP Smart Update User Guide.. Minimum requirements for Linux servers To successfully use HP SUM to perform dependency checks on targets running a Linux operating system, the following must be available: • A local administrative system with at least 1 GB of memory NOTE: The HP SPP or HP Integrity Smart Update firmware bundle that delivered HP SUM might require more memory than HP SUM. Check the release notes for those products for information on the memory requirements. • 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 6 Prerequisites
