This part of the Administrator Guide will help you with tasks necessary to configuring aspects of
the appliances themselves. Specifically, you can learn how to set up and manage enterprise
directory users and groups, secure appliance data transfer, and manage licenses. See also

About managing the appliance
The Settings screen Actions menu contains an Update Foundation appliances link that allows you
to download the latest software versions for the Foundation appliances. See Update Foundation
appliances (page 48).
From the Actions menu, you can also perform support tasks such as creating audit logs, or creating
a support dump file to send to HP Support for analysis. See Create a support dump file (page 39).
You can enable and disable HP support access to the base appliance. When this feature is enabled,
an HP Support representative can request a one-time-use password from HP Support to log into
your appliance to troubleshoot critical issues.
