Command Line Unattended Install

To install a Windows Engine from the command line:

1. Copy the DSEngineInstall.msi or DSEngineInstall64.msi file in DS_MANAGER/webapps/livecluster/public_html/register/install/worker/exe to the Engine machine or a shared directory.
2. If you are using HTTPS, you might need to copy ssl.pem and ssl.keystore to the target installation directory, see Configuring SSL.
3. If you want to enable Engine Daemon authentication during installation, see Enabling Engine Daemon Authentication.

Here is a sample command:

msiexec /quiet /i DSEngineInstall.msi URL=Managerhostname:port ENGSVCUSER=service username ENGSVCPWD=service password [SSL_PEM=ssl.pem file path] [LOGINUSER=user] [LOGINPWD=pwd] [DAEMCONFIG=config]
Note: Omit ENGSVCUSER and ENGSVCPWD if the Engine service should run as a Local System.

You can use the following parameters for Windows Engine installation:

Parameter Description
URL Primary Director URL
ENGSVCUSER Name of the user running the Service
ENGSVCPWD Password of the user running the Service
SSL_PEM Optional. Path to directory that contains ssl.pem
DAEMCONFIG Optional. Engine Daemon Configuration

Note 

A custom certificate for HTTPS works only with the network installation method. If a Manager uses a custom certificate, you cannot install Engines by interactive installation.
