Perform the following steps to install the administration console and the Infrastructure Management Remote cell:

Navigate to the Admin.zip file available in the \TSIMAdmin\Windows directory and extract its contents.
Customize the bmc_tsim_admin_install.options file as required, which is available in the extracted zipped folder.
Open the command prompt with the Run as administrator option. Navigate to the install.cmd file, which is available in the extracted zipped folder.
Run the following command to install an Administration Console on the local computer by using the bmc_tsim_admin_install.options file:

install.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE=<fullyQualifiedPath>\bmc_tsim_admin_install.options

where fullyQualifiedPath indicates the complete path where you have saved the bmc_tsim_admin_install.options file. If the fullyQualifiedPath parameter contains a space in it, the path must be enclosed within double quotes.
Example
install.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="C:\Program Files\Agent Installation\bmc_tsim_admin_install.options"

Note

Installation-related information is not displayed on the console when silent installation begins. However, installation occurs in the background. The progress of the installation is logged in a temporary folder during installation. Go to Start > Run, enter %temp% in the Open box, and see the tsim_admin_install.log file.
