Silent Install Options
All of our setups can be run in a silent mode, so that you can create a script or batch file for installing.
setup.exe /S /SNO=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
To specify a non-default installation path you may specify the "/PATH" option. For instance:
setup.exe /S /SNO=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /PATH=C:\Your\Path
Note that the silent installer is non-blocking. However, using the "Start-Process" cmdlet with the "-Wait" switch in PowerShell will cause the command to not return until the process is complete. For instance:
Start-Process setup.exe -ArgumentList @("/S","/SNO=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX") -Wait
Note: The /S option is case sensitive.
BizTalk
The BizTalk installers also offer additional options to specify which adapters you want to install.
The "/InstallSpecificAdapters" switch tells the setup that only some adapters will be installed. Individual adapters may then be selected by adding options like "/InstallFTP" etc. Multiple adapters may be specified by including multiple options. For example:
setup.exe /S /SNO=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /InstallSpecificAdapters /InstallAS2
SSIS
The SSIS installers provide options for selecting the SQL version(s).
- /SSIS2005 - SQL Server 2005
- /SSIS2008 - SQL Server 2008
- /SSIS2012 - SQL Server 2012
- /SSIS2014 - SQL Server 2014
These options can be added in combination for servers that have multiple versions of SQL Server installed. For example:
Install for SQL Server 2005
setup.exe /sno=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /S /SSIS2005
Install for SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2008
setup.exe /sno=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /S /SSIS2005 /SSIS2008
Install for SQL Server 2014
setup.exe /sno=XISUB-RA1SU-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /S /SSIS2014
Excluding Folders
You can prevent the BizTalk and SSIS installers from installing the folders for help files, demos, and prebuilt pipelines by using the following options:
- /NoDemos - Do not install demos (Only applicable for BizTalk Adapters)
- /NoPrebuilt - Do not install prebuilt pipelines (Only applicable for BizTalk Adapters)
- /NoHelp - Do not install help files (Both SSIS and BizTalk Adapters)
Using Proxies
Windows based setups (.exe) will automatically detect and use system proxy settings. No special settings are necessary.
Java based setups require proxy settings to be specified explicitly. For instance:
java -Dhttp.proxyHost=192.168.1.24 -Dhttp.proxyPort=808 -jar setup.jar
