Using the different command options, you can customize your Security Center Server silent installation.

Unless stated otherwise, all server installation examples below assume that the server does not have SQL Server installed.
  • If you want to use an existing SQL server, use SQLSERVER_GROUP=ExistingServer or SQLSERVER_GROUP=AzureServer instead.
  • If the local instance is not named (LOCAL)\SQLEXPRESS or if the instance is not LOCAL, use GLOBAL_SERVER to set the instance name.

The /debuglog and /log folders must exist before launching the install. If desired, you can omit the /silent parameter. The installation graphical user interface appears with fields filled with values from the parameters.

The data collection policy is set to ON. Setup runs in silent mode.
