SPP dependency scripts and PSP dependency scripts have the same form and function.

Managed systems are rebooted when the SPP or PSP installation script is finished, regardless of
the outcome of the SPP or PSP installation. The reboot is required so that HP SIM can continue to
properly manage the managed system ensures that all drivers and agents are properly started.

IMPORTANT:

If an errata kernel is installed on the managed system, ensure that the SPP or PSP

package you want to install supports the errata kernel version.
