Default Silent Installation and number of seats - 10-12-2009 , 09:51 AM






Hello altogether,

after installation of ASA 11.0.1 with the following command line:
msiexec /i SQLANY32.msi /qn REGKEY=somekey COMPANYNAME="Some Company"
USERNAME="Some Name" TRANSFORMS=@1033-32.mst;myOwnTransform.mst
I find a nice installation, but the license info lacks the correct
number of seats, limiting the installation to 1 seat. Adding the
property LICENSE_UNITS to my transform does not help. I probably need
another addition to the command line, right?

Regards, Manuel Martin

Manuel,

1. I don't believe we have explitly tested using MSI trnasforms - Your
Mileage May Vary

2. The server's license information is stored with the "dbsrv11.lic"
file and nothing else (which will be deployed as a file via the MSI).
This file is only modifiable using the "dblic" utility. If you need to
generate a dynamic amount of seats at install-time, this would have to
be a "post-installation task".

3. Make sure you have bought enough seat licenses to cover this "dynamic
seat" scenario in your deployments. You could technically be breaking
our licensing agreement if you license the customer sites with more
seats than you have actually purchased.

Regards,
