Silent Installations

You can install License Services from the command line, without user intervention.

If this is done as part of a group policy or automated rollout process, please ensure the account used to install remotely has full administrative access to the target machine(s), otherwise installation will fail.

Note: Datamine can't provide specific support on how to distribute its software via 3rd party remote installation tools.

Command Line Options

All Datamine installation packages are provided as a binary executable. This includes both an .msi and supporting files to ensure custom install actions can be performed. 

Important: Datamine applications, including License Services, Data Source Drivers, Table Editor and other support prerequisite packages CANNOT be installed using a standalone .msi file.

If you are installing License Services using a standalone installer via the command line in silent mode (say, as part of a Group Policy rollout) License Services will be installed in Physical/Local Desktop mode by default.

Datamine License Services 1.2.3.4 EN.exe" /v"/qn /norestart

If you want to set the installation type as part of a silent installation you can do so using the optional INSTALLTYPE parameter, for example:

Datamine License Services 1.2.3.4 EN.exe" /v"/qn /norestart INSTALLTYPE=\"1\"

Valid INSTALLTYPE values are:

0. Public Cloud

1. Private Cloud

2. Physical (default)
