Preparations for Installing HDLM by Performing an Unattended
Installation
An unattended installation allows a user to install HDLM without having to
enter information into dialog boxes or specify HDLM functions. Instead, the
user defines the required information for the dialog boxes in an installation-
information settings file prior to running the installation. The procedure for an
unattended installation is as follows:
1. Specify the required information for the installation in the installation-
information settings file.
2. Execute the installhdlm utility.
3. Information will be automatically entered into the dialog boxes or HDLM
functions, as defined in the installation-information settings file.
4. The installation will finish and log data will be output, showing the status
and result of the installation.
This section describes the following aspects of an unattended installation:
• How to create an installation-information settings file
• Notes on installation
For details on the installhdlm utility, see
The installhdlm Utility for Installing
HDLM on page 7-17.
For details about performing an unattended installation, see
Performing a
New Installation of HDLM on Windows Server 2003 on page 3-29 or
Performing a New Installation of HDLM on Windows Server 2008 and
Windows Server 2012 on page 3-52.
How to Create an Installation-Information Settings File
For an installation-information settings file, you need to define the license key
file name, installation destination folder, and then any other information that
is required for the particular installation.
HDLM provides a sample file in order to simplify the editing process of an
installation-information settings file. The sample file is located on the supplied
DVD.
To edit the installation-information settings file:
1. Copy the sample file for the installation-information settings file to any
folder.
The location of the sample file is as follows:
drive-to-which-the-installation-DVD-is-inserted:\HDLM_Windows
\DLMTools\sample_installhdlm.ini
