Install Microsoft Dynamics AX in Silent Mode

When you run the Setup wizard, Setup is running in interactive mode. This
means a graphical user interface (GUI) prompts you for required information.
Alternatively, you can run Setup in silent mode, with no GUI displaying. In this
mode, required information is supplied at the command prompt or in a parameter
file. You can install any Microsoft Dynamics AX component in silent mode.

NOTE: A silent installation is especially useful when deploying multiple clients
at one time .

Deploy Multiple Clients

To deploy multiple Microsoft Dynamics AX Windows clients at one time, it is
recommended that you use the following process.

1. Copy the contents of the Microsoft Dynamics AX DVD to a shared
directory on the network.

2. Create a common configuration file in a shared directory on the AOS
computer that clients will connect to.

3. Create a batch file to install clients with a shared configuration. The
file must be located in a shared directory in the Microsoft Dynamics
AX DVD shared folder, at the same level as Setup.exe.

4. Test the batch file on a local computer.

5. Use a mass deployment tool such as Group Policy or Microsoft
Systems Management Server to run the batch file from a logon
script.

For more information about using Group Policy to deploy software, refer to:

For more information about using Systems Management Server to deploy
software, refer to: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=115327.
The following procedures contain more detailed information about creating a
shared configuration file and creating a command file.
