Microsoft's documentation is incomplete. It tells you how to install sql server from the command line from the command line. It only tells you how to add features from the GUI. I need to add reporting services using the command line!

Any clues?

Thanks Scott

The answer is use the install action with the new features included. I tried this on my sql server installation and it seems like it would work, except I was trying to add reporting services and the web edition does not include that feature.

setup.exe /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /PID=<validpid> /FEATURES=SQL,AS,RS,IS,Tools
