faster.

Some nodes allow you to select the check box so that HP SUM automatically adds
Associated Devices. The associated devices identified varies based on the node type.
Select what you want HP SUM to do if it discovers updates already running on the node.

Some nodes select how you want HP SUM to progress if it detects an update process on
the remote node. Select one of the following:

Leave the update running and bypass the node

Stop any currently running update process on the node and replace it with updates
from this session

NOTE:

If you select HP iLO Federation, enter the iLO Federation Group Name that is

assigned by HP iLO Federation. Use the username and password for the node IP address
you are adding.

HP SUM supports adding HP iLO Federation nodes. HP iLO Federation enables you to
manage multiple servers from one system running the iLO web interface. HP SUM supports
performing inventory on iLO Federation nodes.

For more information about HP iLO Federation, see HP iLO 4 User Guide.

If you want, select the baseline, additional package, or both to apply to this node.
