HP SUM with Onboard Administrator requires a user ID and password to log in. The user ID must be an
Administrator equivalent ID and not an operator or user equivalent level ID.
NOTE: All arguments and information enclosed in brackets are optional. The arguments may
be prefixed with either a '-' or '/' character. These examples show only the '/'.
On Windows® operating systems, use a slash (/) before each argument. On Linux operating systems, use
a hyphen (-) before each argument.
If the /s[ilent] argument is not included on the command line, the HP SUM GUI appears.
NOTE: Command line syntax does not support double-byte character sets. Any messages
entered through the command line using a double-byte character set will not be displayed
correctly.
NOTE: When using HP SUM with HP Integrity BL860c/BL870c/BL890c i2 Server bundles,
HP SUM does not have any command-line arguments to specify the Upload and Do Not
activate option. If HP SUM is started from the command line using the silent argument
(/s[ilent]), then the system being updated reboots automatically. Also, no reporting
functionality using CLI is available when using HP SUM for firmware updates on these servers.
