I'm trying to run a silent install to a Windows server without forcing a reboot. What is the correct syntax to pass Servername, User, and Password into the command?
Hey there @swright, please see the following documentation to get you going on the right path. The first link is the top level set of documentation for deploying the agent and the multiple different methods. The second is more along the lines of what you need to install the agent, however you would just need to append /norestart to the msiexec command provided.
A note on that though... is that with Windows Agents they do install (if not already) the required .Net Framework version which may or may not require the server to be rebooted. If you tell it not to, the agent may not work appropriately until you reboot the server.https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-deploying-an-agent-sw422.htmhttps://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-mass-deploying-an-agent-sw446.htm
Good luck!
Hi @swright refer to the KB article: https://documentation.solarwindsmsp.com/N-central/documentation/Content/Deploying/silent_win_install.htm
You can use the /qn or /qb parameter to install the agent silent mode. But make sure you are running the command prompt in evaluated mode(run as admin) eventhough you are the admin on the server.
Hello @daham_bm - that's documentation unrelated to the SolarWinds Orion Agent. N-Central is not SolarWinds Orion.
Hi @sum_giais Thank you for the correction
Thanks! Appreciate the feedback!
