This can be done through HP Systems Insight Manager

But you need to configure / install this on all your servers first

Re: Install a sw with swinstall on multiple servers with one command
Here's an example from an older post of mine:
Let's assume you have your software called foo in a sd-ux depot called /tmp/bar.depot on nodeA and you want to install it to nodeB nodeC and nodeD
So first you need to make sure that nodes B, C and D trust nodeA for installtions so you need to run the following on each:
/usr/lib/sw/mx/setaccess nodeA
Now we should be able to run the following in nodeA
swinstall -s nodeA:/tmp/bar.depot foo @ nodeB nodeC nodeD
And that should install the software foo from the depot /tmp/bar.depot on nodeA onto the other 3 nodes.
Of course there are lots of extra variables that can come into play when installing software such as whether there is sufficient space, whether there are dependencies, whethere they require a reboot or not so all the other rules about runnning in preview mode first etc. still apply
