HP SSM (System Software Manager)
HP SSM (System Software Manager) lets you remotely update system-level software on multiple
systems simultaneously. When executed on a client computer, SSM detects versions of both hardware
and software, and then updates designated software from a central repository, known as a file store.
Driver versions that are supported by SSM are denoted with a special icon on the HP driver download
Web site and on the Support Software CD. To download the SSM utility or to obtain more information
on SSM, see the HP Web site at
