Installing Managed System Software On Microsoft Windows

Server 2012 Core

The Server Core installation option of the Microsoft Windows Server 2012 operating system provides a minimal

environment for running specific server roles that reduce the maintenance and management requirements and the

attack surface for those server roles. A Windows Server 2012 Core installation installs only a subset of the binaries that

are required by the supported server roles. For example, the Explorer shell is not installed as part of a Windows Server

2012 Core installation. Instead, the default user interface for a Windows Server 2012 Core installation is the command

prompt.

NOTE: Windows Server 2012 Core operating system does not support a graphical user interface (GUI) based

installation of Dell OpenManage software components. Install OpenManage software in the Command Line

Interface (CLI) mode on Server Core. For more information on Server Core, see microsoft.com.

Installing Managed System Software in CLI Mode

Launch the MSI file from the command prompt using the command msiexec /i SysMgmt.msi. The MSI file

SysMgmt.msi is located at SYSMGMT\srvadmin\windows\SystemsManagement on the

Dell Systems Management Tools

and Documentation

DVD.

To install the localized version of the managed system software, at the command prompt type:

msiexec /I SysMgmt.msi TRANSFORMS= <languauge_transform >.mst

• 1041.mst (Japanese)

• 2052.mst (Simplified Chinese)
