This white paper assumes the following:
• HP Web Jetadmin is installed.
• Depots are set up and configured properly.
HP WEB JETADMIN FEATURES FOR SOLUTION
MANAGEMENT
The HP Web Jetadmin features related to solution management include:
• Device group import/export
• Firmware upgrade policies
• Device solution management templates
• Device solution management policies
These features complement the existing HP Web Jetadmin group, filter, and policy features to enable
the creation of workflows designed to manage solutions across a fleet of devices. Although solutions
can still be manually installed on a device or set of devices, workflows provide a number of
advantages.
Feature Advantage
Multistage
installation
Install firmware, update device settings, upload device applications in a
single workflow, and control the exact order in which steps are
performed.
Automatic
maintenance
Automatically reapply a setting or solution if a device loses any part of
the installation.
Automatic filtering Set criteria, such as the device model and RAM, to automatically select
all eligible devices for workflow operations.
Add new devices Apply the workflow to another device by using the drag-and-drop feature
to add the device to the workflow sequence.
Replication
assistance
Export groups and filters from one HP Web Jetadmin system and import
them into another HP Web Jetadmin system, simplifying the task of
creating a workflow on a new server.
More information about these new HP Web Jetadmin features for solution management is provided
later in this white paper.
Import and export device groups
Automatic groups with filters are used to drive workflows. Defining and testing automatic groups and
filters can be a time-consuming activity. With HP Web Jetadmin, you can define and test these groups
and filters once at your site and then export them to several sites during a rollout.
In HP Web Jetadmin, you can export only the groups and filters. HP Web Jetadmin does not support
importing and exporting group policies because this work is easily repeated at each customer
location.
