                         Compaq Support Paq for

1.  INTRODUCTION

    This file contains information regarding use of the Compaq Support
    Paq for Microsoft Windows 2000.  The following information is
    provided:

    Support Paq Installation
    Smart Component Usage
    Log File Usage

2.  SUPPORT PAQ INSTALLATION

    The primary method for installing the Support Paq is to run 
    the SETUP.EXE program included with the Support Paq.  By default, 
    all software is selected for installation.  In most circumstances,
    this default selection should not be altered, and installation is
    as simple as pressing the "Install>" button.  Even when selected,
    only software that is appropriate for the system it is being run
    on will actually be installed.  Press the "Install>" button to 
    proceed with the installation.  After installation of the 
    appropriate software the utility will display its results, 
    including indication of software successfully installed, 
    software not needed for the current system configuration and any
    installation failures.

    A BPxxxxxx.CMD file is also provided with the Support Paq for use 
    in installing the Support Paq from a command prompt without user
    interaction.  As with the SETUP.EXE program, all software 
    appropriate for the system it is being run on will be installed.

    The Compaq Support Paq for Microsoft Windows 2000 contains 
    numerous files.  All files must be present in the same directory
    as the SETUP.EXE program or in order for the Support Paq to be 
    installed properly.

3.  SMART COMPONENT USAGE

    In addition to the SETUP.EXE program mentioned above, the Support 
    Paq contains individual .EXE files corresponding to the various 
    software packages (Smart Components) that make up the Support Paq.
    If necessary, these software packages can be installed 
    individually or their contents extracted to a floppy diskette for
    use during OS installation.

    To install an individual Smart Component just run the appropriate
    CPxxxxx.EXE file (see table below for a mapping of file names to 
    contents) and chose the "Install" button.

    To extract the contents of a component package to diskette run the
    appropriate CPxxxxx.EXE file, then chose the "Extract" button 
    instead of the "Install" button.

    Smart Components support the following command-line switches:

    /help             Displays a dialog box containing usage 
                      information.

    /silent or /s     Runs the installation without user interaction.  
                      This overrides the default behavior of running
                      the installation interactively. 

    /force or /f      Forces a downgrade. This overrides the default 
                      installation behavior of not allowing a 
                      downgrade to a previous version. This switch
                      is only valid when used with the /silent 
                      switch.

    /reboot or /r     Allows the Smart Component's installer to 
                      perform a reboot if it requires one. This 
                      overrides the default behavior of indicating to
                      the user that a reboot is required and not 
                      actually performing the reboot. This switch is
                      only valid when used with the /silent switch.

    /config: CfgFile  Allows configuration information to
                      be supplied to the Smart Component's installer
                      for silent installation. If the Smart
                      Component doesn't support this switch is 
                      ignored. This switch is only valid when used
                      with the /silent switch. 

                      Note: Currently, the Smart Components
                      for the Compaq Management Agents are the
                      only components that support this switch. 

    As when installed with the Compaq Setup Utility (SETUP.EXE), each
    Smart Component checks for supported hardware and software and is 
    only installed if appropriate for the system configuration. 
    Results of the installation are logged to a log file.

    Note: For initial deployment of server setup software 
    (unconfigured system), Compaq Management Agents defaults can
    be modified by using a configuration file. The configuration 
    file provides system specific information for the setup of 
    Management Agents.  Refer to the "Compaq Management Agents 
    for Servers for Windows NT User Guide" (included as a .PDF 
    file on the Management CD), for information regarding usage of
    its configuration file.
