Command-line
argument
Description
/s[ilent]
This argument causes the installation to run silently with no GUI or console
output. All data writes to the log file. Any generated 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 using the
/s[ilent]argument. To check for failed dependencies, remove the /s[ilent]
argument, reissue the command line, and then the HP SUM GUI appears.
/allow_update_to_bundle
This argument is a filter switch and enables the user to install newer versions
of components defined in a PSP or firmware bundle.
This argument enables these components to replace the older versions of the
same component that might have shipped with the bundles.
/allow_non_bundle_comp
onents
This argument is a filter switch and enables the user to install components that
are not included in the bundle but reside in the directory with the components
in the bundle.
/b[undle]
This argument specifies the bundles to install. Bundles to install can be
specified with or without the /b[undle] argument.
•
If using the /b[undle] argument, then only one bundle can be specified
with the argument. However, multiple /b arguments and bundles can be
specified on the same line.
•
If the /b[undle] argument is not used, then multiple bundles can be
specified at the same time, but the bundles need to be separated by a
blank and listed after all the arguments on the command line.
Multiple components and bundles can be specified on the same command
line. When mixing components and bundles on the command line, the filter
switches control what components and bundles are installed.
/express_install
This argument starts express install (for local host only). HP SUM performs
discovery, install, or exit without user interaction. The user can cancel or
terminate HP SUM.
/use_snmp
This argument specifies that components, which use SNMP protocol, are
available to be selected for installation. These components are available for
selection by default. When the /use_snmp argument is used, and the
/use_wmi argument is not, the WMI components are optional.
/use_location “file_share”
This argument specifies a directory or file share that contains the PSP and
components for use with HP SUM. The file_share format must be a mapped
file share and not in UNC format.
If you do not specify this argument, the directory containing hpsum.exe or HP
SUM is used by default. The logged-in account must have access to this
location.
The /user and /passwd arguments do not have any effect when attempting to
access the file share. You can use those arguments only when connecting to a
target system.
/use_web
This argument specifies that the check-box for Check ftp.hp.com on the
Source Selection screen is to be selected. This enables components to be
retrieved from hp.com and to be used in the list of possible updates.
/use_d[ownloaded]
This argument specifies that the check box for Include components previously
downloaded from HP.com on the Source Selection screen is to be selected.
This enables those previously downloaded components to be included in the
list of possible updates.
