UpdateXpress System Pack Installer user interfaces

You can access UpdateXpress System Pack Installer functions through a command-line interface (CLI) or a graphical user interface (GUI).

Functional differences

While the UpdateXpress System Pack Installer CLI and GUI contain nearly the same functional capabilities, there are some functions that are available in the CLI and not the GUI. Using the CLI, you can instruct the installer to:
  • Run unattended in a scriptable environment.
  • Customize a UXSP by including or excluding specific updates.
  • Acquire an individual update by specifying the update filename.
  • Perform updates on remote systems.
  • Perform updates to BladeCenter systems.
