Silent install/upgrade steps for ESP Workstation

Products

• ESP Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

We are trying to have the new build pushed out to our users through a third party too, and we are looking to see if a switch is available so that the upgrade is done automatically "

Environment

Release : 12.0

Component: ESP Workstation 11.3

Resolution

Here are the steps:
1. On command line, go to the Workstation installation folder, and run setup.exe /r from command line, the responses of all the provided options during the installation process will be recorded and stored to C:\Windows\Setup.iss;
2. Move the Setup.iss file to the same directory where the setup.exe exists, which should be the Workstation installation folder;
3. From command line in the above folder,  run setup.exe /s
4. Then command will run silent install/upgrade (based on the options selected on step 1) and use the Setup.iss file as default.

Note:
On step #1, you can choose Upgrade option to upgrade from an older build, and Install option if there is no older build.
