> soamcontrol app disable all
> egosh service stop all
> egosh ego shutdown

o To perform an interactive installation, double-click the .msp package and follow the prompts.
o To perform a silent installation from the Spectrum Symphony command prompt, enter the following command:
C:\>msiexec /update C:\sym-7.1.2.0-egocore-3.4.0.0_build532178.msp /l*v updateSym.log /norestart /quiet REINSTALLMODE=omus
