Summary
Perform a silent installation of a Normal Server (NS) without an Information Server (IS).
Details
You can copy the whole SMS directory of the Information Server (IS) so that the Normal Server (NS) will eventually connect to and place it in a central location. A silent install can then be executed.
Note: The SMS directory contains the installation files for the NS and will not require the Microsoft SMS program to execute.
To install:
- Copy the SMS folder from the Information Server \Sprotect directory. This should connect the Information Server that you want the NS to report to.
- Place the SMS on either the local machine or any server they want to run the script.
- Create a script that will execute the setup.exe inside the SMS folder. Run the following command:
\\servername\SMS\setup.exe -s -m"SPNT5"
- To add the serial number on the SMS\setup.ini file, create a [CommonSection].
Example:[CommonSection]
ServerTargetUNCPath=c$\Trend\SProtect
ServerTargetSN=SPEM-9999-9999-8888-7777
