When you are using 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 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 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 Specifies that if a TPM is enabled, the warning message should be ignored and component installation can continue. 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. Causes the installation to continue and ignore errors. Valid values are as follows: * =ServerNotFound and * =BadPassword. * =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 progress and re-initializes the installation framework on the remote host. Provides HP SUM the information on how to proceed when a component has a failed dependency. The 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.

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.
