HP Smart Update Manager - Manual (Page 30)

Deploying a node
When you open the Deploy screen, HP SUM displays the IP/DNS address for the node and the
node type. The Deploy screen displays components available for deployment, and if a version of
the component is installed on the node, HP SUM displays the Installed version and Active version
of the component.
NOTE: HP SUM supports configuring components on the Baseline Library screen. For more
information, see “Configuring components” (page 25) .
To set deployment options:
NOTE: The Deploy function only deploys the current partition if you are updating an HP Integrity
BL870c i4 and BL890c i4 server. If you want to deploy an enclosure, see “Deploying all partitions
in an HP Integrity BL870c i4 or BL890c i4 node” (page 31) .
To deploy a node
1. From the Nodes screen, select a node to update, and then click Actions
→Review/Deploy.
