5.2.3 Silent Installation Procedure of AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent (for Windows)

In this manual, the method of installing with the default install parameters is called "default install" and the method of installing by editing the install parameters is called "custom install". When using default install, it is not necessary to edit installation parameters.

An install parameter file is a file in which to specify install parameters such as installation destination directory and port number. This file is stored on DVD-ROM and default values are set for respective install parameters. In addition, this file has both automatic service activation and automatic service activation prevention. For details on the install parameter file, refer to "D.5 Install Parameter File (for AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent for Windows)".

The install parameter file is stored on the DVD-ROM "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack (Agent Program and Manual)" of this version.

Based on the following criteria, select an agent to be installed:

When using Symfoware linkage function:	Select 32-bit agent. AdvancedCopy Manager (32bit) for Windows Server 2008 / 2012 (x86,x64) is installed. The function working with Exchange Server is not available.

Storage location

For automatic service activation

For 32-bit agent:

dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x86\install_parameter.ini

For 64-bit agent:

dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\install_parameter.ini

For prevention of automatic service activation

For 32-bit agent:

dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x86\ install_parameter_not_start_service.ini

For 64-bit agent:

dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\ install_parameter_not_start_service.ini

When changing install parameters, copy the install parameter file on DVD-ROM to an optional location and edit the copied file. For description of each install parameter, refer to "D.6 Install Parameters (for AdvancedCopy Manager's agent for Windows)".

Information

The file for automatic service activation (install_parameter.ini) is used to activate the AdvancedCopy Manager's agent services after the installation is complete. The file for the prevention of automatic service activation (install_parameter_not_start_service.ini) is used to prevent the AdvancedCopy Manager's agent services from being activated after the installation is complete.

The silent installation procedure of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent (for Windows) is as follows:

Log on to the target server as a user with administrator privileges.
Install the DVD-ROM "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack (Agent Program and Manual)" of this version into the DVD-ROM drive. If the Installer screen is displayed by autorun, exit the installer.
Start the command prompt with "Run as administrator".
Execute the following silent installation command.
- For automatic service activation in default install:
  For installLogFile, specify the file in which to output installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify for installLogFile.
  - For 32-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x86\acmagtsilentinstall.bat [-l installLogFile]
```
  - For 64-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\acmagtsilentinstall.bat [-l installLogFile]
```
- For preventing automatic service activation in default install:
  It is mandatory to specify installParameterFile.
  For installParameterFile, specify the file stored on DVD-ROM (install_parameter_not_start_service.ini) with an absolute path.
  For installLogFile, specify a file in which to output an installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify installLogFile.
  - For 32-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x86\acmagtsilentinstall.bat -s installParameterFile [-l installLogFile]
```
  - For 64-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\acmagtsilentinstall.bat -s installParameterFile [-l installLogFile]
```
  The following is an execution example of a 64-bit agent.
  - When the DVD-ROM drive is "D" and the install log file is "C:\silentinstall.log"
```
D:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\acmagtsilentinstall.bat -s D:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\install_parameter_not_start_service.ini -l C:\silentinstall.log
```
- For custom install:
  For installParameterFile, specify with an absolute path. It is mandatory to specify for installParameterFile.
  For installLogFile, specify the file in which to output installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify for installLogFile.
  - For 32-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x86\acmagtsilentinstall.bat -s installParameterFile [-l installLogFile]
```
  - For 64-bit agent:
```
dvdromDrive:\Agent_windows\AdvancedCopy_Manager\agent\windows_x64\acmagtsilentinstall.bat -s installParameterFile [-l installLogFile]
```
Point
- If nothing is specified for installLogFile, an install log file named "acmagtsilentinstall.log" is created in the working directory specified by the environment variable TEMP.
- If there is any file of the same name as the specified install log file exists, it is overwritten.
- It is required to specify an existing directory with write permission for the directory in which to store the install log file. If it has no write permission, no error message is output in the command prompt or screen and the process terminates with error.
- If the paths to the install parameter file and install log file contain any spaces, they should be surrounded by double quote characters.
- The characters " | : * ? / . < > % & ^ ; ! are not supported for path name for install parameter file or install log file.
Note
- If an invalid option is specified, its corresponding error message is output in the install log file and the process exits. No error message is output in the command prompt or screen.
- When reinstalling AdvancedCopy Manager's agent on Windows Server 2012 or later, if you change following port number for service in AdvancedCopy Manager's agent, delete the following service name defined in the %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\services file before reinstalling:
  - stgxfws
- Do not execute multiple silent install commands at the same time. If a silent install starts while a silent install is executing, the silent install terminates abnormally without creating an install log file.
On completion of installation, a command prompt is displayed.
