### Up-To-Date Installation (UDI)
The Software Update Manager can run on any host with an Application Server instance (e.g. NWAS ABAP PAS/AAS, NWAS JAVA CI/AAS) with correct permissions to access /usr/sap/ and /sapmnt/ directories.

When using the Software Provisioning Manager (SWPM) with a Maintenance Planner Stack XML file to perform an "up-to-date installation" (UDI) - it will start the Software Update Manager (SUM) automatically at the end of the installation process. This UDI feature applies only to SAP ABAP Platform / SAP NetWeaver, and must be performed from the Primary Application Server instance (i.e. NWAS ABAP PAS, or a OneHost installation).

Furthermore, during SWPM variable selection the enabling of Transport Management System (TMS) is required, see SAP Note 2522253 - SWPM can not call SUM automatically when doing the up-to-date installation.
