HPSUM Syntax - Bad format for reboot delay

dospavlos — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 15:37:18 GMT

Anytime I try to run hpsum from CL with a target specified, I get error message 'bad format for reboot delay'. If I don't specify a target, no error. Error occurs no matter if I use the reboot switches or not. Anyone seen this and know what the problem is?

Can you post the CLI syntax you are using? Also be sure there is a space between the /target parameter and the target. If you are going to multiple targets, be sure each target is preceded with the /target switch.

For example,

hpsum -s /target target1 /target target2 ...

Problem result of using /t instead of /target. Strange how a syntax error on the target switch gives a 'bad format for reboot delay'. Wasted a bunch of time trying to troubleshoot reboot delay syntax. Thanks for the help
