Examples
Installing RAS Powershell Module silently
msiexec /i RASInstaller-18.0.22242.msi ADDLOCAL=F_PowerShell /qn
NOTE: To use silent installation for RAS Powershell Module, Powershell execution policy must be set first.
Alternatively, it can be installed in basic UI mode which does not require setting execution policy:
msiexec /i RASInstaller-18.0.22242.msi ADDLOCAL=F_PowerShell /qb
Verbose logging during installation
msiexec /i RASInstaller-17.1.21676.msi /qn /L*V install.log
NOTE: It will create install.log file in the same directory where the installer is being executed unless the path is specified explicitly.
Silent installation of RAS Console
msiexec /i RASInstaller-17.1.21676.msi ADDLOCAL=F_Console /qn
Silent installation of RAS PC Agent and RAS Console
msiexec /i RASInstaller-17.1.21860.msi ADDLOCAL=F_PCAgent,F_Console /q
Installing RAS Console along with SSO component
The parameter F_SSO INSTALLSSO (available in RAS v17 onwards): Exclude/Include SSO during a silent installation
0 - Do not install SSO (default)
1 - Install SSO
msiexec /i RASInstaller-*.msi ADDLOCAL=F_Console,F_SSO INSTALLSSO=1 /l*v install.log /qn
Warning: Execution of this command will cause an IMMEDIATE reboot of the OS.
RAS SSO service requires the system's reboot. In the example below, we've added "/norestart" option to have an ability to save necessary changes and then manually restart the OS. RAS SSO functionality will start working after the reboot.
msiexec /i RASInstaller-*.msi ADDLOCAL=F_Console,F_SSO INSTALLSSO=1 /l*v install.log /qn /norestart
