Preparation

To create a transform for a component, you need the configuration script mst_gen.vbs.

This script is located in the folder where Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Management Console is

installed. The default folder path is:

 %ProgramFiles%\Acronis\BackupAndRecoveryConsole in 32-bit Windows

 %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Acronis\BackupAndRecoveryConsole in 64-bit Windows

If the management console is installed on a different machine, you can copy the script from that

machine. See also “Examples of creating a transform” later in this section.

Order of installation for an agent

When you install an agent, first install the Agent Core component (if it is not yet installed), then the

agent itself, and then the agent features.

Installation procedure

To install or update a component in the unattended mode

1. Start the setup program.

2. Click Extract installation files (when using the standard setup program) or Save installation files

(when using the Web-based setup program).

3. Extract the component's installation package.

4. If you are installing a component that uses a transform, create the transform by running the

configuration script. Otherwise, skip this step.

For example, the following command creates a transform to install Agent for Windows with the

license key ABCDE-54321:

mst_gen.vbs /msi_path C:\AcronisAgentWindows.msi /serial ABCDE-54321

See the examples later in this section. The complete syntax of the configuration script is

described in "Configuration script parameters" (p. 33).

5. Do either of the following, depending on whether you are installing or updating the component:

 If you are installing the component, run Windows Installer (the msiexec program) as

follows:

When installing a component that requires a transform (in this example, Agent for

Windows):

msiexec /i c:\AcronisAgentWindows.msi TRANSFORMS=AcronisAgentWindows.mst /qb

Otherwise (in this example, when installing the management console):

msiexec /i c:\AcronisManagementConsole.msi /qb
