Silent mode installation involves running a command at the command prompt with arguments specifying the license activation, product serial number, and installation path. In addition, you can specify which individual software features to install and the path of the log file.

Because Smart Instrumentation installation requires SmartPlant License Manager for concurrent licensing, you must first install the SmartPlant License Manager software on your workstation and on every other workstation where you are going to install Smart Instrumentation in silent mode. For more information about installing and configuring SmartPlant License Manager, see the SmartPlant License Manager Online Help.

You must ensure that there is sufficient disk space on each workstation for the installation.

Prior to creating a silent setup of Smart Instrumentation over a network, ensure that the following conditions exist:
-
The target machine does not have a directory by the same name to which Smart Instrumentation is to be installed.

The target machine meets the free disk space recommendations specified in Smart Instrumentation Workstation.
