SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 - SCUP - HP Driver Update

Dear Experts,

Thank you all for Continuous Support.

We are planning to deploy the Non-Microsoft Updates (Driver - For HP Devices -  Like Display, Network Driver) to End User for HP Machines from SCUP via SCCM 2012 R2.

We are having almost 18,000~ Clients across the Globe. Is this recommended to use SCUP for deploying the HP Driver Update's or Shall we go with traditional Method of deployment.

Added, to that - We are having Variety of Model Number from HP. Does SCUP really Support us with all the Model Number gives the Updates in the SCUP Console?

Your advice's are really required pls

Have you looked at the HP SCUP Catalog? I would start with that and see if this does what you need.

Dear Team,

We are Planning to deploy Driver regular for HP Machines - So far, We are downloading the Driver File, Doing Package and Deploy it using SCCM 2012 R2 (Microsoft Configuration Manager)

We are Currently in progress of deploying it using SCUP. We noticed that HP is having Default Catalog with SCUP. All We want to know does SCUP Catalog File Support all of these Models? for Driver (Driver - It should be all - BIOS, Display, Network, Sound, Etc.,)

We are not able to find the White Paper or any documents in the Online regarding this. Please help us on getting the List of Machines which supported by SCUP Catalog File for HP Devices which given by HP along with List of Drivers which are supported.

Note : We have also tried to download the Cab File, and try to Look into the XML, If we get any ReadMe Text or PDF File with list of Machines & Driver Supported - It would be very helpful.

Kindly, See the Following Model's which we are looking to deploy the driver Update with help of SCUP - HP Catalog File.

Initiated a Discussion on HP Forum, No Reply as of now.. Please do the needful

This is all I found, with a quick web search:

http://whp-aus2.cold.extweb.hp.com/pub/caps-softpaq/cmit/whitepapers/HP%20Client%20Updates%20Catalog%20for%20Microsoft%20System%20Center%20Products.pdf

Overview HP Client Updates Catalog for System Center products:
- Contains information about HP software updates (also known as SoftPaqs), such as title, description, supported languages, download URL, applicability rules, installed rules, and so on
- Does not contain the binary code of a software update
- Includes only software with a self-contained executable setup program that can be silently installed in Windows  
- Includes only update information for commercial desktops, notebooks, and workstation platforms
- Does not contain update information for thin clients or servers
- Is digitally signed by HP
- Is available at ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software/sms_catalog/HpCatalogForSms.latest.cab

If you open the CAB file, and then open the XML file inside, you can view the ApplicabilityRules, which shows the WMI queries for particular model names/numbers/etc
