/passive Starts installer with minimum UI (i.e. only progress is reported - and errors)
/quiet Starts installer completely quiet - no UI is displayed (so you have to rely on the log files)

MS-SQL-Server (Servername and Instance - or just Servername for Default Instance)

Name of the EM database (either not existing or completely empty)

Account name (WITHOUT domain) - the administrative user of the Enterprise Manager

AD_FIRSTNAME

(mandatory, no default)

First name of administrative Account

AD_LASTNAME

(mandatory, no default)

Last name of administrative Account

AD_EMAIL

(mandatory, no default)

Email address of administrative Account

AD_LANGUAGE

(optional, default DE)

Language to use in Enterprise Manager for administrative Account (valid values: en, de), if user language is de, otherwise en

WEB_PORT

Port for the web console to use (valid values: 1024 - 65535)

INSTALLFOLDER

(optional)

port selection will stop the installation! 

 MSI QUIET UNINSTALLATION

'Matrix42 Enterprise Manager.exe' [ /quiet | /passive] /uninstall

GENERAL INFORMATION

To define a special loggin file specify it via /log <logfile>! Otherwise you will find the logs in folder %TEMP%

PREREQUISITES

To create a working installation there are some prerequisites that have to be fulfilled:

  1. 64bit OS
  2. 2. MS .NET Framework 4.6
  3. IIS 6 (or later)
  4. MS .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (for MS Chart Controls)
  5. Microsoft Chart Controls for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5
  6. Microsoft Access database engine 2010

 Without the first four prerequisites installed the Matrix42 Enterprise Manager Installer will not install anything at all!

To get the Matrix42 Enterprise Manager full functional the last two prerequisites must be installed. This has to be done seperately, because the MSI is not capable of doing this task by itself.
