Installing the console via the command line
The CM console may also be installed via the command line using the console.msi executable file which is located in the /software/console/winnt directory of the archive. To do this, enter the following command with the desired options:
msiexec /i numara-footprints-asset-core-console.msi INSTALLDIR='<ConsoleInstallationDirectory>' ALLUSERS=2 DESKSHORTCUT=1 SSL=1
- The INSTALLDIR option defines the installation directory of the console. If the optional command is not used the default directory C:/Program Files/BMC Software/Client Management/console is used.
- The ALLUSERS option defines where the configuration information of the installed console is stored. The following values are possible:
- ALLUSERS='' : Determines a per-user installation using folders in the user's personal profile. For this option no administrator rights are required.
- ALLUSERS=1 : Specifies a per-device installation using folders in the All Users profile. Administrator rights are required for this option.
- ALLUSERS=2 : Offers two possibilities:
- Specifies a per-device installation using folders in the All Users profile if the installation is launched by a user with administrator rights.
- Determines a per-user installation using folders in the user's personal profile if the installation is launched by a user with only user rights.
- The DESKSHORTCUT option defines if a shortcut to the console is to be created on the desktop. By default the shortcut is created. If the value 0 is set, no shortcut is created.
- The SSL option defines if the communication between the console and the master agent is secured. By default this option is activated ( 1 ).
