> soamcontrol app disable all

b.        On each management host and compute host, download the sym-7.3.0.0-soamcore-7.3.0.0_build601265.msp package to a temporary location on the host and install the package:

o   For an interactive installation, double-click the .msp package and follow the prompts.

o   For a silent installation, enter the following command from the command prompt:

C:\>msiexec /update C:\sym-7.3.0.0-soamcore-7.3.0.0_build601265.msp /l*v install.log /norestart /quiet REINSTALLMODE=omus 

The command syntax is as follows:

C:\>msiexec /update sym_package_name_path /l*v install.log /norestart /quiet REINSTALLMODE=omus

where:

o   sym_package_name_path is the fully qualified path to the .msp package; in this case, C:\sym-7.3.0.0-soamcore-7.3.0.0_build601265.msp.

o   install.log is the log file for the upgrade.
