from HTTP proxy fails. Components from the HP FTP site is only presented for selection on the

Select Items to Install screen if their versions are newer than what is already on the system. If
a system has all of the latest versions of firmware and software, no components from HP.com

is presented on the Select Items to be Installed screen.

HP SUM does not support the ability to download the latest components from

ftp.hp.com to HP Integrity servers.

Include components previously downloaded from HP.com—This option includes the components that

have been previously downloaded from the HP ftp site as available for selection on the Select Items
to be Installed screen. The default location for the previously downloaded components is

%TEMP%\hp_sum\RepositoryManager\Repxx\ directory. To use components
already downloaded from the HP website, select this checkbox.

To begin the inventory process, click Start Inventory. The Inventory Progress screen appears while the HP
SUM builds an inventory of available updates.

Download Permission (applicable only for ProLiant servers)

Before starting any discovery, HP SUM searches the web digest for self-discovery components that must
be downloaded for the discovery process. Self-discovered components are components including but not

limited to NIC firmware and tape firmware that HP SUM uses to discover the hardware in the system. If
the Check ftp.hp.com checkbox has been selected on the previous screen, then the Download Permission

screen might appear if there are self-discovery components that are available for download.
