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.
NOTE: After an unattended
installation is complete, to use the command line interface (CLI)
feature of Server Administrator, you must open a new console window
and execute the CLI commands from there. Executing CLI commands from
the same console window in which Server Administrator was installed
does not work.
You can make the DVD image available to the remote system by either distributing the entire contents of the media, or by mapping a drive from the target system to the location of the DVD image.
