Performing An Unattended Installation Of Managed System Software

The Systems Management installer features a Typical Setup option and a Custom Setup option for the

unattended installation procedure.

Unattended installation enables you to simultaneously install Server Administrator on multiple systems.

Perform an unattended installation by creating a package that contains the necessary managed system

software files. The unattended installation option also provides several features that enable you to

configure, verify, and view information about unattended installations.

The unattended installation package is distributed to the remote systems using a software distribution

tool from an independent software vendor (ISV). When the package is distributed, the installation script

executes to install the software.

Creating And Distributing The Typical Unattended Installation Package

The Typical Setup unattended installation option uses the Systems Management Tools and

Documentation DVD as the unattended installation package. The msiexec.exe /i <SysMgmt or

SysMgmtx64>.msi /qb command accesses the DVD to accept the software license agreement and

installs all the required Server Administrator features on selected remote systems. These features are

installed on the remote systems based on the system's hardware configuration.
