HP Insight Control Server Provisioning 7.3 Update 1 Build Plans Reference Guide

Type: Python

Required Parameters:

 --driveLetter - The letter that's associated with the network drive to be unmapped.

Custom Attributes: None

Unmount All Boot Disk Partitions

Unmounts all the partitions belonging to the boot disk. By default, the boot disk is computed as the first hard drive

listed in /proc/partitions.

Type: Unix

Parameters: None

Optional Custom Attributes:

 boot_disk - The absolute path to the device file for the boot disk. For example, /dev/sda.

Unmount Intelligent Provisioning WinPE Drive

Unmounts the Intelligent Provisioning WinPE volume containing the directory, $WinPEDrivers$ where WinPE drivers are

provided for ProLiant Gen8 servers. This prevents the Windows setup utility from using these drivers for the Windows

installation. This script is currently only used with Windows 2008 SP2 deployments.

Type: Windows .BAT

Parameters: None

Custom Attributes: None

Update Firmware Using SPP

Runs an off-line firmware update on the target server using HP SUM from an SPP on the media server.

IMPORTANT: Due to a recently discovered issue, this script has been modified so that it will only run when the server is

booted to the Intelligent Provisioning service OS available on ProLiant Gen8 or newer servers. Attempts to run this script

on servers prior to Gen8 or on servers that are PXE booted will result in a failure of the script with an appropriate

message. This issue will be resolved in a future release.

This script must be run while booted in the LinuxPE service OS. It uses the HP SUM utility and specified HP Service Pack

for ProLiant (SPP) version. This script expects the SPP location on the Media Server to be \Media\spp\yyyy.mm.x

where yyyy.mm.x is the SPP version number, for example 2014.02.0. This script comes after the Set Media Source

script.

Since this script uses the HP SUM utility, an SPP should be used in the media server location. Copying a supplemental

package to that location will fail the script since it won’t be able to find HP SUM.

The SPP version may have an alpha number after the yyyy.mm.x, for example, 2013.09B.0. Adding this alpha number at

the end will work appropriately to pick up 2013.09B.0 as the latest compared with 2013.09.0 or 2013.09A.0.

Since this is an off-line firmware update, the log files showing what happened will be lost as soon as the server reboots.

IF you want to save a copy of the logs on the media server, use the hpsum_logs_dump_dir option as described below.

Type: Unix

Optional Parameters:

 --spp_version=directory_name - The name of the directory containing the SPP to be installed, such as

2013.02. If the value is blank or latest, the script automatically selects the directory with the latest version

as determined by sort order.

 --hpsum_options="option1 option2 option3 ... optionN" - HP SUM utility supported command-line options

that are to be passed to HP SUM. Refer to HP SUM's CLIhelp.txt documentation file for available options.

 --hpsum_logs_dump_dir=writable_directory_under_mounted_file_share - Copies the zipped HP SUM log

files to the specified directory. The directory must start with the mount point specified in the Set Media Source
