Command-line arguments
HP SUM recognizes the following command-line arguments, which you can use to pre-populate
the GUI on the Source Selection and Review/Install Updates screens. If you specify the target and
credentials, use the /s[ilent] parameter to proceed with the installation.
You cannot use some arguments, such as /romonly and /softwareonly, together.
Description Help
Displays command line help information. /h[elp] or /?
Description Installation options
Overrides or downgrades an existing component
installation. This produces the same results as
/f:software
.
/f[orce]
Overrides or downgrades the existing installation of
components in the selected bundle. /f[orce]:bundle
Overrides or downgrades the existing installation of the
selected firmware components (applies to firmware only). /f[orce]:rom
Overrides or downgrades the existing installation of the
selected software components. /f[orce]:software
Overrides or downgrades the existing installation of the
selected software components, firmware components, and
bundles. /f[orce]:all
Downgrades to an earlier version of firmware for
multi-target devices such as hard drives and array
controllers (applies to firmware only). /g or /downgrade
Downgrades to an earlier version of firmware for
multi-target devices such as hard drives and array
controllers (applies to firmware only). /e or /rewrite
Causes the installation to run silently with no GUI or console
output. All data writes to the log file. Any generated /s[ilent]
prompts use the default option and continue the installation
without user input. If a component requires input before
installation (such as configuration information), then the
component installation fails, and an error message writes
to the log file.
Failed dependencies are not reported to the user when you
are using the /s[ilent] argument. To check for failed
dependencies, remove the /s[ilent] argument and
reissue the command line. The HP SUM GUI appears.
