Creating and using installation parameter files

If you use the command line switches without the -S switch, the Backup Exec installation program launches with the command line parameters as defaults for the installation options. For example, suppose you type:

	SETUP /TS: /USER:user /DOM:domain /PASS:password /SNO:license
	key

The Backup Exec installation program is launched. The screens that allow you to enter the logon credentials and the license key will appear with the information you provided on the command line.

You can also use the /CPF: and /XML: commands to create a parameter file that contains all of the command line options you provided. This parameter file can then be used to provide the options for installing either Backup Exec or the Remote Administrator.

To create installation parameter files

  1. Open a Windows command prompt.

  2. Change to the drive containing the Backup Exec CD.

  3. Change directories to \WINNT\INSTALL\BE.

  4. Type setup /TS: and the appropriate switches, including /CPF: and the full path name of the parameter file. For example, type:

    	setup /TS: /USER:user /DOM:domain /PASS:password /SNO:license 
	key /CPF:"A:\file name" -S

    Backup Exec will be installed on your server and a parameter file containing the user name, domain, password, and license key will be saved to a floppy diskette. You can use this parameter file to install to another computer.

To use installation parameter files

  1. Open a Windows command prompt.

  2. Change to the drive containing the Backup Exec CD.

  3. Change directories to \WINNT\INSTALL\BE.

  4. Type:SETUP /PARAMS:"A:\file name" -S

  5. If you want to overwrite a parameter, specify the new parameter. For example, to change the password, type:SETUP /PARAMS:"A:\file name" /PASS:new password-S

    To create an XML file containing all parameters, use the /XML: switch. The XML file is not encrypted, which exposes parameters such as the password.
