Appendix A: Completing a Silent Windows Installation ● 150
Completing a Silent Installation
You will need the Adaptec Storage Manager Installation CD to complete this task.
To complete a silent installation:
1 Insert the CD into your CD drive.
2 Open a command prompt window and change to the CD directory.
3 Run the silent installation from the command line using one of these files, as appropriate:
setup asm x64.exe or setup asm x86.exe. For example:
setup asm x86.exe /s /v" /qn <properties>"
where <properties> is one or more of the options listed in Available Properties and Values
on page 151.
Separate properties with spaces; separate feature names for the ADDLOCAL property with
commas (see examples on page 151).
Note:
Synchronous Installation—To install Adaptec Storage Manager so that the .exe file does
not close until the installation is complete, add the /w parameter to the .exe file and run the
application with the start /WAIT command as shown in this example:
start /WAIT setup asm x64.exe /w /s /v" /qn <OPTIONS>"
You might want to do this for a batch file installation so that the setup will not return until
the installation is finished.
After a minute or two, the silent installation should be complete and the Adaptec Storage
Manager icon should be accessible. Continue with Building Your Storage Space on page 25.
