2.3 Installation in the unattended mode

To install the product or any of its components in the unattended mode (without asking for

confirmations), run the installation file with the -a command-line parameter. You may need to use

other parameters (p. 6) to specify how to perform the installation.

For example, the following command installs Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Linux and

Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Console in the unattended mode (without asking for

confirmations) and uses the license key 12345-7890-ABCDE:

./AcronisBackupRecoveryServerLinux.i686 -a -i

BackupAndRecoveryAgent,ManagementConsole -l 12345-67890-ABCDE

2.4 Command-line parameters

When running the AcronisBackupRecoveryServerLinux.i686 installation file, you can specify one or

more of command-line parameters.

Parameters

-a or --auto

Performs installation in the so-called unattended setup mode, as opposed to the default

interactive mode.

The setup program will proceed without asking for interaction, such as typing the license key or

clicking the Next buttons. Specify the license key by using the -l parameter. Specify the

component to install by using the -i parameter.

If the SnapAPI module needs to be compiled and the compilation is possible, the setup program

will automatically compile the module; otherwise, it will skip the compilation.

-n or --nodeps

Ignores dependencies during an unattended setup. This option is effective only in the

unattended setup mode (see the -a parameter described previously).

-u or --uninstall

Uninstalls the component. You do not need to specify a license key.

-d or --debug

Puts verbose information to the installation log.

-i ComponentName or --id=ComponentName

Specifies the name of the component being installed:

For Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Linux: BackupAndRecoveryAgent

For Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Bootable Components and Media Builder:

BackupAndRecoveryBootableComponents

For Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Console: ManagementConsole

For Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Upgrade Tool: AcronisUpgradeTool

Without this parameter, all components will be installed.

-l LicenseKey or --serial=LicenseKey

Applies only to Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Linux and Acronis Media Builder.
