SMS: Silent Unattended Setup for SMS 2.0 Service Packs

ID: Q235729

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Systems Management Server version 2.0

SUMMARY

Systems Management Server 2.0 has the capability to do silent/unattended upgrades of Systems Management Server Service Packs.

To install Service Pack 1 silently, you can run "Setup.exe /Upgrade /NoUserInput" from the \SMSSetup\Bin\%platform% directory on the Systems Management Server SP1 CD.

MORE INFORMATION

NOTE: If you use the /NOUSERINPUT switch, the user won't be presented with any dialog boxes. If the Systems Management Server Administrator Console is open on the server, the upgrade process will close it for you.

If you do NOT use the /NOUSERINPUT switch and just use /Upgrade, the user will be prompted to close down any administrator consoles if open, and the dialog box indicating that Systems Management Server Setup has finished will be displayed.
