<br />
==== Examples ====<br />
<br />
The following command-line command is an example that uses the .msi file. Be aware that the Windows Installer switch &quot;/q&quot; is used to make this a silent installation and that the &quot;%&quot; characters in &quot;%HomeDrive%&quot; are preceded by the &quot;^&quot; escape character. Otherwise, the Windows command shell will set the value to that of the user who is performing the installation.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'''msiexec.exe /i &quot;softgrid-ts-setup.msi&quot; SWICACHESIZE=&quot;1024&quot; SWIDCSDISPLAY=&quot;Production Environment&quot; SWIDCSTYPE=&quot;HTTP /secure&quot; SWIDCSHOST=&quot;OSFSGS&quot; SWIDCSPORT=&quot;443&quot; SWIDCSPATH=&quot;/SoftGrid/appsntype.xml&quot; SWIDCSREFRESH=&quot;on&quot; SWISKIPDATASETTINGS=&quot;false&quot; SWIGLOBALDATA=&quot;D:\SoftGrid\Global&quot; SWIUSERDATA=&quot;%HomeDrive%\Windows\SoftGrid Client&quot; SWISOFTGRIDDRIVE=&quot;S&quot; /q'''<br /><br />
<br /><br />
The following command-line command is an example that uses the .exe file. Be aware that the InstallShield switch /s is used to make this a silent install. Also be aware that the quotation marks that appear in the &quot;/v&quot; section must be treated as special characters and entered as &quot;\&quot;.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'''&quot;softgrid-ts-setup.exe&quot; /s /v&quot;SWICACHESIZE=\&quot;1024\&quot; SWIDCSDISPLAY=\&quot;Production Environment\&quot; SWIDCSTYPE=\&quot;HTTP /secure\&quot; SWIDCSHOST=\&quot;OSFSGS\&quot; SWIDCSPORT=\&quot;443\&quot; SWIDCSPATH=\&quot;/SoftGrid/appsntype.xml\&quot; SWIDCSREFRESH=\&quot;on\&quot; SWISKIPDATASETTINGS=\&quot;false\&quot; SWIGLOBALDATA=\&quot;D:\SoftGrid\Global\&quot; SWIUSERDATA=\&quot;^%HomeDrive^%\Windows\SoftGrid Client\&quot; SWISOFTGRIDDRIVE=\&quot;S\&quot;&quot;'''<br /><br />
<br /><br />
There are no SoftGrid command-line switches available for the .msp file. However, you can use the following Windows Installer command-line switches to silently install the .msp file:<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'''msiexec.exe /p &quot;softgrid-xx-HFxxxxxxxxxx.msp&quot; /qn+ REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=omus'''<br /><br />
<br /><br />
The following command-line command is an example that uses the .msi file to upgrade the SoftGrid Client.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'''msiexec.exe /i &quot;softgrid-ts-setup.msi&quot; REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus'''<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'''Note''' The quotation marks are required only when the value contains a space. For consistency, all the previous examples are shown as having quotation marks.<br />
