Configuring components

Some components might have required or optional configuration settings. Configuration parameters include information necessary to set up the component correctly or passwords required for software installed by the component. The configuration is stored within the component and is propagated to all nodes. If the optional configuration data of a component is not provided and the component has not been installed previously, the default values for that configuration data are used. If the component has been previously installed and configured and no changes are made to the configuration data, the existing configuration information is preserved. Component configuration requires that Smart Components are in a write-accessible location. A CD, DVD, or read-only network share is not supported. You can change component options from the Baseline Library screen.


	NOTE: If HP SUM displays an error when you try to configure it, configure the component outside of HP SUM.

To configure components:

On the Baseline Library screen, scroll down to the list of components, and then click Needs Configuration for each component you need to configure.

NOTE: Configuration options vary based on the component.


	NOTE: HP SUM 6.x does not support configuring components released prior to the HP SPP 2013.09.0(B). Use HP SUM 5.3.5 to update these components.
