Command-line
argument Description
/on_failed_dependen
cy
This argument tells HP SUM how to proceed when a component has a failed
dependency.
The default of OmitHost causes the host to be put in a failure state and no
install is attempted on it.
OmitComponent deselects the affected component(s) and proceeds with any
updates that do not have dependency failures.
Force attempts all updates, even if they have dependency failures.
Reboot options
/r[eboot]
If the following conditions are met, then this argument causes the server (or
host server in a remote installation) to reboot:
• The /reboot option is selected or given as a command-line argument.
• All components selected for installation are successfully installed.
• At least one of the installed components requires a reboot to complete its
installation.
/reboot_message
“reboot message”
This argument displays the specified reboot message on remote consoles
connected to the server you want to reboot. You must use this argument with
the /reboot option or the argument is ignored.
/rebooted
timeout_in_seconds
This argument delays the reboot of the server for the length of time specified
by the timeout_in_seconds variable. You must use this argument with the
/reboot option, or the argument is ignored. Acceptable values are between
15 and 3600.
• The default timeout value is 15 seconds for Microsoft® Windows®
operating systems and 60 seconds for Linux.
• For Linux, the Reboot Delay time is converted from seconds to minutes,
and any value under a full minute, 59 seconds or less, rounds to the next
minute.
/reboot_always • If the following conditions are met, then this argument forces the server to
reboot: The /reboot_always option is selected or given as a command-
line argument.
• All components selected for installation are successfully installed.
Creating host groups
/group “group_name”
This argument specifies an already defined group name in the HP SUM GUI.
Simulating HP SUM
/dryrun
This argument simulates the installation for a test run. Nothing is installed.
Targets
/user <username> or
/username
This argument enables you to log in to the remote target (except for the OA
target) with the user ID.
/psswd <password> This argument enables you to use the password for the user ID specified in the
/user parameter (except for the OA target). The password is used to log in
to remote targets.
/current_credential This argument enables the credentials of the local host to be used as the
credentials to access the targets instead of providing the username and
password explicitly for each target. The assumption is that the current
credentials are valid for the targets being accessed. (Applies to Windows®
operating systems only.)
