February 2013 Abstract This document describes how to use HP SUM to apply firmware updates to HP ProLiant and HP Integrity servers, and apply software updates to HP ProLiant servers. This document is intended for individuals who understand the configuration and operations of Microsoft Windows, Windows Server, Linux, smart components, and the risk of data loss from performing updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.1 Command-line interface You can use the HP SUM command-line interface to script custom installations. For more information on using HP SUM, see the HP Smart Update Manager User's Guide HP SUM documentation website at http://www.hp.com/go/hpsum/documentation. 1.1.1 Command-line syntax The general command-line syntax for HP SUM is as follows: hpsum [/h[elp]] [/?] [/f[orce]] [/f[orce]:bundle] [/f[orce]:rom] [/f[orce]:software] [/f[orce]:all ] [/g (/downgrade)] [/e (/rewrite) [/r[eboot]] [/reboot_message "reboot message"] [/reboot_delay timeout_in_seconds] [/reboot_always] [/s[ilent]] [/c[omponent] ] [/group "group_name"] [/b[undle] ] [/allow_update_to_bundle] [/allow_non_bundle_components] [/use_latest] [/use_location "file_share"] [/use_web] [/use_d[ownloaded]] [/tpmbypass] [/ignore_tpm] [/nomgmt] [/use_snmp] [/use_wmi] [/use_ams][/romonly] [/softwareonly] [/dryrun] [/continue_on_error ] [/override_existing_connection] [/express_install] [/user or /username ] [/passwd ] [/current_credential] [/target "netAddress"] [/targettype "type of target" ] [/logdir "path"] [/v[erbose]] [/veryv[erbose]] [/report][/inventory_report] [/firmware_report] [/On_failed_dependency:] [/oa_username ] [/oa_password ] [/use_proxy ] [/proxy_script ] [/proxy_user ] [/proxy_passwd ][/inputfile "filename"] [/c[omponent] ][ ...][ ...] [/su_username] [/su_password] [/use_sudo] [/auth_key] The following commands are supported only by Superdome 2 servers: [/update_type ] [/device_list ] [/reboot_list ] HP SUM with OA 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] Note: All parameters and information enclosed in brackets are optional. The parameters may be prefixed with either a hypen (-) or slash (/) character. These examples show only the slash. On Windows, use a slash before each argument. On Linux, use a hyphen before each argument. If the /s[ilent] argument is not included on the command line, the HP SUM GUI appears. [Note] Note: Command-line syntax does not support double-byte character sets. Any messages entered through the command line via a double-byte character set will not be displayed correctly. [Note] Note: /targettype is an optional command line argument. Use /targettype and /target together, you can interchange the sequence of /target and /targettype. 1.1.1.1 Using Linux root credentials If run HP SUM from a Linux system where you do not login to the system as a root user, you can still update targets from the CLI if you user Linux root credentials. 1.1.1.1.1 Prerequisites for using Linux root credentials o If you have run HP SUM as a root user, remove the temp directory created by HP SUM. o Make sure user has read/write access permissions to the /tmp and /var directories. o If you create a sudo user, make sure that you add that user to the /ect/sudousers file +----------------------------------------+ | User | Privilege | Specification | |-----------+------------+---------------| | Root | ALL= (ALL) | ALL | |-----------+------------+---------------| | Sudo_user | ALL= (ALL) | ALL | +----------------------------------------+ 1.1.1.2 Switch update commands G7 and earlier servers do not support AMS agents.

arguments HP SUM recognizes the following command-line arguments, which you can use to pre-populate the GUI on the Source Selection and Review/Install Updates screens. If you specify the target and credentials, use the /s[ilent] parameter to proceed with the installation. You cannot use some arguments, such as /romonly and /softwareonly, together. +---------------------------------------------------------+ | Help | Description | |---------------+-----------------------------------------| | /h[elp] or /? | Displays command line help information. | +---------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Installation options | Description | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Overrides or downgrades an | | | existing component | | /f[orce] | installation. This produces | | | the same results as | | | /f:software. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Overrides or downgrades the | | /f[orce]:bundle | existing installation of | | | components in the selected | | | bundle. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Overrides or downgrades the | | /f[orce]:rom | existing installation of the | | | selected firmware components | | | (applies to firmware only). | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Overrides or downgrades the | | /f[orce]:software | existing installation of the | | | selected software components. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Overrides or downgrades the | | | existing installation of the | | /f[orce]:all | selected software components, | | | firmware components, and | | | bundles. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Downgrades to an earlier | | | version of firmware for | | /g or /downgrade | multi-target devices such as | | | hard drives and array | | | controllers (applies to | | | firmware only). | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Downgrades to an earlier | | | version of firmware for | | /e or /rewrite | multi-target devices such as | | | hard drives and array | | | controllers (applies to | | | firmware only). | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Causes the installation to run | | | silently with no GUI or | | | console output. All data | | | writes to the log file. Any | | | generated prompts use the | | | default option and continue | | | the installation without user | | | input. If a component requires | | | input before installation | | | (such as configuration | | | information), then the | | /s[ilent] | component installation fails, | | | and an error message writes to | | | the log file. | | | | | | Failed dependencies are not | | | reported to the user when you | | | are using the /s[ilent] | | | argument. To check for failed | | | dependencies, remove the | | | /s[ilent] argument and reissue | | | the command line. The HP SUM | | | GUI appears. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies which components to | | | install. Components to install | | | can be specified with or | | | without the /c[omponent] | | | argument. | | | | | | o If you are using the | | | /c[omponent] argument, | | | then only one component | | | can specified with the | | | argument. However, | | | multiple /c arguments and | | | components can be | | | specified on the same | | | line. | | | | | | o If you do not use the | | | /c[omponent] argument, | | | then multiple components | | | can be specified at the | | | same time, but the | | | components must be | | | separated by a blank and | | | listed after all the | | | arguments on the command | | | line. | | | | | | o The components are | | | installed in the order | | /c[omponent] or | provided unless | | | dependencies between | | | components require | | | installation in a | | | different order. If so, | | | the utility changes the | | | installation order based | | | on the component | | | dependencies to ensure the | | | successful installation of | | | as many components as | | | possible. | | | | | | o Multiple components and | | | bundles can be specified | | | on the same command line. | | | When you are mixing | | | components and bundles on | | | the command line, the | | | filter switches control | | | what components and | | | bundles are installed. | | | | | | o HP SUM only uses the | | | component name. If you | | | type the entire directory | | | path, HP SUM will ignore | | | the path. If you use | | | /use_location and /c, HP | | | SUM checks both the | | | default repository and the | | | directory provided. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This argument specifies an | | /group "group_name" | already defined group name in | | | the HP SUM GUI. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This argument specifies | | | bundles to install. Bundles to | | | install can be specified with | | | or without the /b[undle] | | | argument. | | | | | | o If you are using the | | | /b[undle] argument, only | | | one bundle can specified | | | with the argument. | | /b[undle] or | However, multiple /b | | | arguments and bundles can | | | be specified on the same | | | line. | | | | | | o If you do not use the | | | /b[undle] argument, | | | multiple bundles can be | | | specified at the same | | | time, but the bundles must | | | be separated by a blank | | | and listed after all the | | | arguments on the command | | | line. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This argument is a filter | | | switch. It enables you to | | | install newer versions of | | | components defined in a PSP, | | | ISP, or firmware bundle. | | /allow_update_to_bundle | | | | This argument enables these | | | components to replace the | | | older versions of the same | | | component that might have | | | shipped with the bundles. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This argument is a filter | | | switch. It enables you to | | /allow_non_bundle_components | install components that are | | | not included in the bundle but | | | reside in the directory with | | | the components in the bundle. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This argument is a filter | | | switch for use with bundles. | | | The argument enables the | | | latest version of the bundle | | | to be used when multiple | | | versions of bundles are listed | | /use_latest | on the command line. If there | | | are no bundles specified on | | | the command line, and multiple | | | bundles are in the directory, | | | the /use_latest argument | | | allows HP SUM to use the | | | bundle that has the latest | | | version for installation. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies a directory or file | | | share that contains the SPP, | | | HP Integrity Smart Update | | | Firmware Bundles, and | | | components for use with HP | | | SUM. The file_share format | | | must be a mapped file share or | | | UNC format. If this argument | | | is not specified, the | | | directory that contains | | | hpsum.exe or HP SUM is used by | | /use_location "file_share" | default. | | | | | | The logged-in account must | | | have access to this location. | | | | | | The /user and /passwd | | | arguments do not have any | | | effect when you are attempting | | | to access the file share. Use | | | those arguments only when you | | | are connecting to a target | | | system. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies that the check box | | | for Check ftp.hp.com on the | | | Source Selection screen is | | /use_web | selected. This enables | | | components to be retrieved | | | from ftp.hp.com and used in | | | the list of possible updates. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Enables the inclusion of a | | | proxy server (and port number) | | | to access ftp.hp.com. This | | /use_proxy | parameter must be used with | | | /use_web. For example, | | | /use_web /use_proxy | | | <1.22.33.44:80>. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Enables the inclusion of a | | | proxy script to access | | /proxy_script | ftp.hp.com. This parameter | | | must be used with /use_web. | | | For example, /use_web | | | /proxy_script . | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Sets the password to be used | | /proxy_password | for an authenticating proxy | | | server. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies that the check box | | | for Use last downloaded | | | repository from ftp.hp.com on | | | the Source Selection screen in | | /use_d[ownloaded] | the GUI is selected. This | | | enables the previously | | | downloaded components to be | | | included in the list of | | | possible updates. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies that AMS, SNMP, and | | | WBEM Providers management | | | components are optional on the | | /no_mgmt | Components Selection screen. | | | In silent mode, HP SUM will | | | not update any management | | | components. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies that components that | | | use SNMP protocol and the AMS | | | components are available for | | /use_snmp | installation by default. When | | | the /use_snmp argument is | | | used, the AMS components are | | | required, but the WMI | | | components are optional. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies that components that | | | use the WMI protocol are | | | available for installation. | | | These components are optional | | | and are not installed unless | | | this argument is used. When | | /use_wmi | the /use_wmi argument is used, | | | and the /use_snmp & /use_ams | | | arguments are not, the SNMP | | | and AMS components are | | | optional. This argument does | | | not apply to HP Integrity | | | servers. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | Specifies which AMS components | | | can be installed along with | | | SNMP components. The AMS and | | | SNMP components are available | | /use_ams | to select by default. When the | | | /use_ams argument is used, the | | | SNMP components are required, | | | and the WMI components are | | | optional. | |---------------------------------------+--------------------------------| | | This filter switch allows you | | | to see only the firmware | | | components needed for | | | installation. When you are | | | using this filter switch, you | | | must exit and restart HP SUM | | /romonly | 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 | | /softwareonly | 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. | | /express_install | HP SUM performs discovery, | | | installation, and exit without | | | user interaction. You can | | | cancel or terminate HP SUM. | | | server. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Overriding errors | Description | |-------------------------------+----------------------------------------| | | Specifies that if a TPM is enabled, | | | the warning message should be ignored | | /tpmbypass or /ignore_tpm | and component installation can | | | continue. For more information about | | | TPM, see the HP Smart Update Manager | | | User Guide. | |-------------------------------+----------------------------------------| | | Allows the installation to proceed on | | /ignore_warnings | 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. | | /continue_on_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 | | /override_existing_connection | 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 | | /On_failed_dependency: | 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. | | /partition_only | | | | This command is for HP Integrity | | | servers only. | |-------------------------------+----------------------------------------| | | Use these arguments if you do not use | | | the /partition_only argument. If you | | | do not enter the selections, then the | | /oa_name and /oa_password | update will display and error and | | | exit. | | | | | | This command is for HP Integrity | | | servers only. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Reboot options | Description | |-------------------------+----------------------------------------------| | | If the following conditions are met, this | | | argument causes the server (or host server | | | in a remote installation) to reboot: | | | | | | o The /reboot option is selected or given | | | as a command-line argument. | | /r[eboot] | | | | o All components selected for installation | | | are successfully installed. | | | | | | o At least one of the installed components | | | requires a reboot to complete its | | | installation. | |-------------------------+----------------------------------------------| | | Displays the specified reboot message on | | /reboot_message "reboot | remote consoles connected to the server that | | message" | you want to reboot. You must use this | | | argument with the /reboot option, or the | | | argument is ignored. | |-------------------------+----------------------------------------------| | | Delays the reboot of the server for the | | | length of time that the timeout_in_seconds | | | variable specifies. You must use this | | | argument with the /reboot option, or the | | | argument is ignored. Acceptable values are | | | between 15 and 3600. | | | | | /reboot_delay | o The default timeout value is 15 seconds | | timeout_in_secs | for Microsoft Windows operating systems | | | and 60 seconds for Linux. | | | | | | o 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. | |-------------------------+----------------------------------------------| | | If the following conditions are met, this | | | argument forces the server to reboot: | | | | | /reboot_always | o The /reboot_always option is selected or | | | given as a command-line argument. | | | | | | o All components selected for installation | | | are successfully installed. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Simulating HP SUM | Description | |-------------------+----------------------------------------------------| | /dryrun | Simulates the installation for a test run. Nothing | | | is installed. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Targets | Description | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Use this argument to log in to the remote | | | targets by using the user ID. For the OA | | /user or | target, use the /oa_username argument. | | /username | | | | The user name needs to belong to the root or | | | administrator group. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Use this argument to use this password for the | | | user ID specified in the /user parameter | | /psswd | (except for the OA target). The password is | | | used to log in to remote targets. For the OA | | | target, use the /oa_password argument. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Root (super user) or sudo credentials username | | | to start session, discover and update the | | | components when credentials specified in | | | /username and /passwd do not have root | | | privileges to update components. When you | | | specify /use_sudo, /su_username is considered | | | as a sudo username. | | /su_username | | | | When you do not specify /use_sudo, /su_username | | | is considered a root (super user) username. | | | | | | [Note] Note: | | | To use the Linux root credential | | | functionality, you must pass the target | | | type /TARGETTYPE =Linux. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Root (super user) or sudo credentials password | | | to start session, discover and update the | | | components when credentials specified in | | | /username and /passwd do not have root | | | privileges to update components. When you | | | specify /use_sudo, /su_passwd is considered as | | | sudo password. | | /su_password | | | | When you do not specify /use_sudo, /su_username | | | is considered a root (super user) username. | | | | | | [Note] Note: | | | To use the Linux root credential | | | functionality, you must pass the target | | | type /TARGETTYPE =Linux. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Specifies that /su_username and /su_passwd are | | | sudo or root (super user) credentials. | | | | | | When you specify /use_sudo in the CLI along | | | with /su_username and /su_passwd, then | | | /su_username and /su_passwd are considered as | | | sudo credentials. | | | | | | When you do not specify /use_sudoin the CLI, | | | /su_usename and /su_passwd are considered as | | /use_sudo | root credentials. | | | | | | When you specify /use_sudo in the CLI, and | | | /su_username and /su_passwd are not specified, | | | then /username and /passwd are considered as | | | sudo credentials. | | | | | | [Note] Note: | | | To use the Linux root credential | | | functionality, you must pass the target | | | type /TARGETTYPE =Linux. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | This is the IP address or the DNS name of a | | | remote host, which can be a remote server, | | | remote iLO NIC port, Virtual Connect Ethernet | | | or Fibre Channel Module for c-Class | | /target "netAddress" | BladeSystem, or BladeSystem OA. | | | | | | When two OAs are in an enclosure, this argument | | | should be the active OA. When specifying the IP | | | address, use either the IPv4 or IPv6 format. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | This option can reduce discovery time for | | | scripted deployments. This is an optional | | | command line argument. | | | | | | The following are valid target types: | | | | | | o Server | | | | | | o Windows | | | | | | o Linux | | | | | | o HPUX | | | | | | o EVA or Command View for EVA | | | | | | o Fc Switch or Fibre Channel Switch | | | | | | o OA or Onboard Administrator | | /targettype | | | | o SUPERDOME 2or SUPERDOME2 or Superdome 2 | | | Onboard Administrator | | | | | | o iLO | | | | | | o VC or Virtual Connect | | | | | | o HP SASor HP SAS B/L Interconnect Switch | | | | | | o VMWare or VMware Host | | | | | | o iPDU or Intelligent Power Distribution Unit | | | (iPDU) | | | | | | Use /targettype with /target parameter. You can | | | interchange the sequence of /targettype and | | | /target. If the target name includes spaces, | | | make sure you enclose the name in quotation | | | marks, " ". | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Enables the credential of the local host to be | | | used as the credential to access the targets | | | instead of providing the user name and password | | /current_credential | explicitly for each target. The assumption is | | | that the current credential is valid for the | | | targets being accessed. (Applies to Windows | | | only) | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | This argument provides the user name credential | | | for OA associated with VC specified with the | | | target command-line parameter. Only one set of | | | OA credentials can be specified with | | | command-line parameters. You can add multiple | | | VC targets to command-line parameters with the | | | target parameter only if the credentials of OAs | | | associated with specified VCs are the same. The | | /oa_username | argument oa_username is not required if VC has | | | the same credentials as the associated OA. You | | | do not need to provide an OA network address | | | associated with VC. HP SUM queries it from a | | | specified VC target. | | | | | | To update multiple VCs with different user | | | names and passwords, or VCs with OAs that have | | | different credentials, use the corresponding | | | input files OAUID and OAPWD. | |----------------------+-------------------------------------------------| | | Provides the password credential for OA | | | associated with VC specified with the "target" | | | command-line parameter. Only one set of OA | | | credentials can be specified with command-line | | | parameters. You can add multiple VC targets to | | | command-line parameters with the "target" | | | parameter only if the credentials of OAs | | | associated with specified VCs are the same. The | | /oa_password | argument oa_password is not required if VC has | | | the same credentials as the associated OA. You | | | do not need to provide an OA network address | | | associated with VC. HP SUM queries it from a | | | specified VC target. | | | | | | To update multiple VCs with different user | | | names and passwords, or VCs with OAs that have | | | different credentials, use the corresponding | | | input files OAUID and OAPWD . | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Log files | Description | |----------------+-------------------------------------------------------| | | Redirects the output from HP SUM or the HP | | | BladeSystem c-Class OA flash utility to a different | | | directory than the default location. | | | | | | o For Windows components, the default location is | | /logdir "path" | %SYSTEMDRIVE%\CPQSYSTEM\hp\log and | | | the redirected location is | | | \hp\log\. | | | | | | o For Linux components, the default location is | | | /var/hp/log/ and the redirected | | | location is /hp/log/. | |----------------+-------------------------------------------------------| | | Sets the verbosity level for the HP SUM execution log | | /v[erbose] or | file, hpsum_execution_log__
