Description

Installation options

This filter switch allows you to see only the firmware
components needed for installation. When you are using

/romonly

this filter switch, you must exit and restart HP SUM if you
want to return to an unfiltered state.

Do not use the /romonly argument with the
/softwareonly

argument. (Applies to firmware only.)

This filter switch allows you to see only the software
components needed for installation. When you are using

/softwareonly

this filter switch, you must exit and restart HP SUM if you
want to return to an unfiltered state.

Do not use the /softwareonly argument with the
/romonly

argument.

Starts an express installation (for the local host only). The
HP SUM performs discovery, installation, or exit without

/express_install

user interaction. You can cancel or terminate HP SUM. An
express installation will force install all components in the
default repository and may downgrade drivers and
firmware to the versions in the default directory as part of
the installation operation. The express installation feature
allows you to set a baseline and enforce it regardless of
the currently installed version of drivers and firmware on
the local server.

Description

Overriding errors

Specifies that if a TPM is enabled, the warning message
should be ignored and component installation can continue.

/tpmbypass

or /ignore_tpm

For more information about TPM, see

“Disabling BitLocker

to permit firmware updates” (page 12)

.

Allows the installation to proceed on a Superdome 2 target
even when warnings are returned during analysis.

/ignore_warnings

Causes the installation to continue and ignore errors. Valid
values are as follows:

/continue_on_error

<error>

* <error>=ServerNotFound

and

* <error>=BadPassword.

* <error>=FailedDependencies

You can use the ServerNotFound option to bypass
inactive or unavailable remote hosts when you are
deploying firmware or software to multiple remote hosts at
the same time.

Defines the behavior when a remote target has an existing
HP SUM session in progress. It overrides the session in

/override_existing_connection

progress and re-initializes the installation framework on
the remote host.

Provides HP SUM <parameter> the information on how to
proceed when a component has a failed dependency. The

/On_failed_dependency:

<parameter>

supported parameters for this argument are Omit_Host
(default), Omit_Component , and Force. Omit_Host
causes the host to be put into a failure state, and no
installation is attempted. Omit_Component deselects the
affected components and proceeds with any updates that
do not have dependency failures. Force attempts all
updates, even if they have dependency failures.

Use this argument to select a partition to update.
