Does systems management Install support Windows Advertised installation?
No. Systems management Install does not support Windows Advertised installation - the process of
automatically distributing a program to client computers for installation, through the Windows group
policies.
How do I check the disk space availability during custom installation?
In the Custom Setup screen, you must click an active feature to view the hard drive space availability or
to change the installation directory. For example, if Feature A is selected for installation (active) and
Feature B is not active, the Change and Space buttons are disabled if you click Feature B. Click Feature A
to view the space availability or to change the installation directory.
What do I do when I see the current version is already installed message is
displayed?
If you upgrade from version X to version Y using MSP and then try to use the version Y DVD (full install),
the prerequisite checker on the version Y DVD informs you that the current version is already installed. If
you proceed, the installation does not run in
Maintenance mode and you do not get the option to
Modify, Repair, or Remove. Proceeding with the installation removes the MSP and creates a cache of the
MSI file present in the version Y package. When you run it a second time, the installer runs in
Maintenance mode.
What is the best way to use the prerequisite checker information?
The prerequisite checker is available for Windows. See the readme file at SYSMGMT\srvadmin\windows
\PreReqChecker\readme.txt on the Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD, for detailed
information about using the prerequisite checker.
In the Prerequisite Checker screen, I get the following message. What can I
do to resolve this problem?
An error occurred while attempting to execute a Visual Basic Script. Please
confirm that Visual Basic files are installed correctly.
This error occurs when the prerequisite checker calls the systems management script, vbstest.vbs (a
Visual Basic script), to verify the installation environment, and the script fails. The possible causes are:
• Incorrect Internet Explorer Security Settings.
Ensure that Tools → Internet Options → Security → Custom level → Scripting → Active scripting
is set to Enable.
Ensure that Tools → Internet Options → Security → Custom level → Scripting → Scripting of
Java applets is set to Enable.
• Windows Scripting Host (WSH) has disabled the running of VBS scripts. WSH is installed during
operating system installation, by default. On Windows 2003, WSH can be configured to prevent the
running of scripts with a .VBS extension.
