each remote system based on the system's hardware configuration. This installation is done silently and

unattended.

Customization Parameters

REINSTALL and REMOVE customization CLI parameters provide a way to customize the exact software

features to install, reinstall, or uninstall when running a silent or unattended installation. With the

customization parameters, you selectively install, reinstall, or uninstall software features for different

systems using the same unattended installation package. For example, you can choose to install Server

Administrator, but not Remote Access Controller service on a specific group of servers, and choose to

install Server Administrator, but not Storage Management Service, on another group of servers. You can

also choose to uninstall one or multiple features on a specific group of servers.

NOTE: Type the REINSTALL, and REMOVE CLI parameters in upper case, as they are case‑sensitive.

You can include the REINSTALL customization parameter on the command line and assign the feature ID

(IDs) of the software feature that you want to reinstall. For example,

msiexec.exe /i SysMgmt.msi

REINSTALL=BRCM /qb

This command runs the installation for Systems Management and reinstalls only the Broadcom agent, in

an unattended but not silent mode.

You can include the REMOVE customization parameter on the command line and assign the

feature ID (IDs) of the software feature that you want to uninstall. For example, msiexec.exe /i

SysMgmt.msi REMOVE=BRCM /qb

This command runs the installation for Systems Management and uninstalls only the Broadcom agent, in

an unattended but not silent mode.

You can also choose to install, reinstall, and uninstall features with one execution of the msiexec.exe

program. For example, msiexec.exe /i SysMgmt.msi REMOVE=BRCM /qb

This command runs the installation for managed system software, and uninstalls the Broadcom agent.

This execution is in an unattended but not silent mode.

The following table provides the list of feature IDs for each software feature.

NOTE: The software feature IDs mentioned in the table are case-sensitive.
