HP SUM User Interface

Deployment scenarios

HP SUM deploys firmware and software on a local host or one or more remote hosts. The remote hosts
must be online and running the same operating system as the system running HP SUM. For example,
when the remote hosts are running Linux, HP SUM must also be running on a Linux operating system.
The following table describes when typical HP SUM deployment scenarios are used.
