(User Guide) Instruction Manual

DescriptionOverriding errors
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./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 update will display and error and exit.
/oa_name and /oa_password
This command is for HP Integrity servers only.
DescriptionReboot options
If the following conditions are met, this argument causes
the server (or host server in a remote installation) to reboot:
/r[eboot]
• 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.
Displays the specified reboot message on remote consoles
connected to the server that you want to reboot. You must
/reboot_message "reboot message"
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
/reboot_delay timeout_in_secs
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.
If the following conditions are met, this argument forces
the server to reboot:
/reboot_always
• The /reboot_always option is selected or given as
a command-line argument.
• All components selected for installation are successfully
installed.
