SMSINST: Working with Complex Expressions and Operators

ID: Q235724


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Systems Management Server Installer version 2.0


SUMMARY

The Systems Management Server 2.0 Installer included with Systems Management Server Service Pack 1, includes functionality for complex expressions and operators.

Using complex expressions and operators, you can create variables for your installation script that you could not otherwise create. You can also use complex expressions to assign an integer or a string value to a variable. You can use complex operators when you are using the Set Variable script item to assign a Boolean value to a variable. You use complex operators to present a conditional statement for assigning a variable.

If the condition of the statement is met, then a Boolean value of 1 is assigned to the variable. If the condition of the statement is not met, then a Boolean value of zero is assigned to the variable.


MORE INFORMATION

For descriptions on available expressions and examples of use, refer to Systems Management Server Installer Help.

This functionality is included in versions of Systems Management Server Installer 2.0.80.00 and higher.
