privileges for the target computer, and then restart the process. Be sure the remote registry service is
running on a Windows®-based system.

Invalid or incorrect command-line parameters

If incorrect parameters are passed into command-line options, an error message describing the invalid or
incorrect parameter is displayed and the program exits (Example: Invalid source path for system
configuration or ROMPaq files). Correct the invalid parameter, and then restart the process.

Network connection fails on remote communication

Because network connectivity cannot be guaranteed, it is possible for the administrative client to become
disconnected from the target server during the ROM flash preparation. If any remote connectivity
procedure fails during the ROM flash online preparation, the ROM flash does not occur for the target
system. An error message describing the broken connection displays and the program exits. Attempt to
ascertain and correct the cause of connection failure, and then restart the process.

Failure occurs during ROM flash

After the online flash preparation has been successfully completed, the system ROM is flashed offline. The
flash cannot be interrupted during this process, or the ROM image is corrupted and the server does not
start. The most likely reason for failure is a loss of power to the system during the flash process. Initiate
ROMPaq disaster recovery procedures.

Target system is not supported

If the target system is not listed in the supported servers list, an error message is displayed and the
program exits. Only supported systems can be upgraded using the Remote ROM Flash utility. To see if the
server is supported, refer to the Software and Drivers Download website
(http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server).
