Updating system software
HPCM allows you to configure system software such as device drivers and BIOS firmware on the HPCM Server for downloading and installation on client computers. HPCM installs software that is encapsulated into SoftPaqs and stored in the SoftPaq Filestore on the HPCM Server. The HP SoftPaq Filestore Configuration screen shown below is used to enter the path to the SoftPaq Filestore.

Through this mechanism, HPCM allows you to completely control which SoftPaqs are downloaded and installed on each of your client machines.
