SAPinst Command Line Options

[#1]

Hello,

is it possible to install e.g. NW 7.0 from the Windows/Linux command line without GUI, only with parameters ?

Is there any documentation ?

Best regards

Alex

Automating SAPInst is a 2 step process.

Step 1: Capture an answer file & retrieve the product-ID.

Step 2: Replay the answer-file

Prepare a 'RunFromHere" location containing 'start_dir.cd'

Prepare the location containing 'inifile_capture.xml

    Files: doc.xml, inifile_captured.xml, keybd.xml

X:

cd X:\RunFromHere

X:\SMWPx_Py\sapint.exe SAPINST_PARAMETER_CONTAINER_URL=[path2\inifile_capture.xml] _

               SAPINST_EXECUTE_PRODUCT_ID=[Retrieved_Product_ID] _

               SAPINST_SKIP_DIALOGS=false

On Windows, make sure to assign sidadm the necessary Privileges to avoid al logoff/logon.

> ntrights -u Domain\sidadm +r seAssignPrimaryokenPrivilege

> ntrights -u Domain\sidadm +r seTcbPrivilege

> ntrights -u Domain\sidadm +r seIncreaseQuoataPrivilege

To debug... change SAPINST_SKIP_DIALOGS to true..
