Describes the different ways in which you can install
Enterprise Server.
To install
Enterprise Server you run
EnterpriseServer20.exe which contains a number of product
.msi files (Windows Installer packages). When run,
EnterpriseServer20.exe performs some initial system checks then sequentially installs the MSIs.
EnterpriseServer20.exe can take a number of parameters, enabling you to specify a number of different types of installation:
- Standard Installation
- Format:
- EnterpriseServer20.exe
- Summary:
- Full installation including License Manager, Vision, and
Enterprise Server. During installation you can specify options including the location to which the components are installed.
- Non-interactive Installation
- Format:
- EnterpriseServer20.exe /qb
- Summary:
- Full installation, but the components are installed non-interactively using default options and directories.
- Silent Installation
- Format:
- EnterpriseServer20.exe /q
- Summary:
- Full installation, but the components are installed non-interactively with no user interface, using default options and directories.
- Modified Silent Installation
- Format:
- EnterpriseServer20.exe /q /componentargs "Micro Focus
Enterprise Server":"INSTALLDIR=d:\cobolrts"
- Summary:
- Full installation, but the installation is controlled by the /componentargs switch and the standard MSI property INSTALLDIR. In the example above,
Enterprise Server is installed into
d:\cobolrts.
Note:
- You can display the valid values for the /componentargs switch by using the /displayconfig switch:
EnterpriseServer20.exe /displayconfig
- Log files that are created during installation are saved in the folder specified by the TEMP environment variable.
- You can extract the component
.msi files from
EnterpriseServer20.exe by using the by using the /extractcab switch:
start /wait
EnterpriseServer20.exe /extractcab
The extracted
.msi files are saved in the
SupportFiles subfolder.
