Is there a way to perform a scripted/silent install of the windows agent? I have ansible handing *NIX but the help menu for the windows agent does not make it clear how to provide the configuration prompted for during the install.
Thanks and regards
Hi,
there are multiple command line options to Windows agent installer. You can get standard installer options by running it with /?. Generally for unattended install you'll have to specify /VERYSILENT and /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES options. There are also custom command line options that allows you to pass information for generated agent configuration file:
/SERVER=
Set server IP address or host name (will be set in configuration file as MasterServers)
/CENTRALCONFIG
Read configuration from server on startup
/LOCALCONFIG
Use local configuration file (it is the default)
/SUBAGENT=
Add sub-agent loading directive to configuration file. Possible sub-agent names are ECS, FILEMGR, LOGWATCH, PING, PORTCHECK, WINPERF, WMI, and UPS. You can specify this parameter multiple times to add more than one sub-agent.
Best regards,
Victor
