HP SUM deployment

I think HP SUM eliminates the necessity of having HP VCA on HP servers for updating Firmware and Software components in HP VCA/VCRM environment. Can HP SUM be installed on HP VCRM server and confgured connect to VCRM repository to pick-up the updates and install them on target servers. Note-HP VCRM running on separate server and not integrated with HP SIM.

Hello,

You can run HP SUM, you don't install HP SUM just as HP VCRM, you could point the SUM running instance to a VCRM repository but i'm not sure if the baselines get updated while HP SUM is running.

HP SUM is a deploy tool rather than a server based running piece of software running all the time.

Thanks. Appreciate if you could share any procedure doc link about pointing HP SUM running instance to a HP VCRM repository.

There is no official doc for configuring this, I've not tried this but if the VCRM auto downloads a complete SPP and you point your HPSUM to this directory i would yhink that should work.
