How to add a updated component to hpsum Installation

Hi,
I'm installing hp Agents with the hpsum.exe Utility from the PSP Sources.
As described in the documentation I copied a updated component (cp008238.exe) to that directory and tryed to install this package with "hpsum.exe /silent /allow_update_to_bundle", but the installation does not regards the additional component.
What's wrong? Do I have to modify some "input" files ?
Thanks for your help

hi

check the command line

hpsum /s /allow_update_to_bundle

dont use .exe

using cmd you need to go where psp folder is and execute the command

check this file (.doc) it is much better if you see it

Re: How to add a updated component to hpsum Installation

hi

- mmm I have doubt from my previous post... while I try more research

- check the log file

4. LOG FILE USAGE

Progress and results of the installation of all software included in the Support
Pack is logged to the file %SystemDrive%\cpqsystem\log\cpqsetup.log.

- also what if you try

hpsum /s c/ cp008238.exe

any other error when you use the command?

Karlo, thanks for your help, but I found the problem myself:
I tried to update a disabled device, very stupid. After enabling the device the component was found and updated.

Some additions:
- The Log File %SystemDrive%\CPQSYSTEM\log\cpqsetup.log shows only discovered Devices, so in my case nothing was shown.
- The log file in %temp%\hp_sum\InventoryResults.xml shows the discovery result for all of the components and the status if the component is required or not!

So nothing had to be modified, just copy the new component cpXXXXXX.exe to PSP folder and run "hpsum.exe /silent /allow_update_to_bundle". Works finde.

Have a nice day
