Reports

HP SUM can generate three types of reports about the specified system or repository. You can only
generate the reports using the command-line arguments provided. If no additional arguments are

specified on the command line, the local host and default repository locations (the directory where HP
SUM was initiated) are used. You can specify a target with appropriate credentials and a repository
using other command-line parameters if you want to generate reports for other systems and repositories.

For specific commands, see "Command line interface ("

Description

Report file information*

/report

This argument generates a report

listing, a target summary, and how the
components in the repository affect the

target (for example, whether each
component applies to the target or
not).
Usage: hpsum /report

The report files generated are:

hpsum_Report_<date>.html

hpsum_Report_<date>.xml

/inventory_report

This argument generates a report

listing of the components in the
specified repository.
Usage: hpsum /inventory_report

The report files generated are:

hpsum_Inventory_Report_<date>.h

tml

hpsum_Inventory_Report_<date>.x

ml

/firmware_report

This argument generates a report

listing of the firmware in the specified

repository.
Usage: hpsum /firmware_report

The report files generated are

hpsum_Report_<date>.html and

fwreport.xml is placed in a folder
named
HPSUM_Firmware_Report_<date>

The reports are generated as an XML and HTML file which can be viewed in a web browser. The

supported browsers for viewing the report files are Microsoft® Internet Explorer 6.0 and Mozilla Firefox
3.5 and above. By default, the reports are located in the current working directory from where the HP
SUM was initiated. If that current location is write-protected, the reports are located in the same directory

as the HP SUM log files.

On Windows® operating systems: C:\cpqsystem\hp\log

On Linux operating systems: /var/hp/log

When generating the requested report, the HP SUM GUI does not appear. When the report is generated,

HP SUM reports the location where the report files can be found.
