HP SUM No default baseline found

By vervoortjurgen|2014-08-04T19:35:02+01:00August 4th, 2014|HP server|

I was updating an hp Server and had hard time adding a baseline. so i tought to share it with all. First, you must create baseline in "baseline library" Then, don't forget to go to "Nodes" menu and add this baseline in "general" menu then "inventory" this node, then "deploy" updates and finally i rebooted the server first before doing any update. close all programs and don't use Internet Explorer !! i ended up using Firefox to get all the updates installed
