Component configuration for Windows components only

To configure components without going through the HP Smart Update Manager GUI, issue the command, hpsum_config <component_to_configure>. This command presents the same configuration screens seen in the HP Smart Update Manager GUI. Configuration for a given component only needs to be executed once. The configuration is stored within the component and is propagated to all target servers when deployed through HP Smart Update Manager GUI or command line. To change the configuration, rerun hpsum_config against the component and a new configuration writes out. If a component does not need configuration, hpsum_config will return to the console.

To configure components to be deployed on all editions of the Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2008 with the Server Core option, you must access the system as a remote host using HP Smart Update Manager running on a system with a supported Windows® operating system, and then configure the components before deployment.
