The Inedo Agent installer may also be run without displaying a window, ideal for Infrastructure as Code or script-based installations. To perform a silent install, simply run the executable from the command line or PowerShell with the /S argument.
Argument Format:
Silent installation arguments follow the format:
InedoAgentSetup.{version}.exe /{argument-name}="{argument-value}"
Note: quotes are required if the argument-value contains whitespace.
Example:
.\InedoAgentSetup.42.exe /S /TargetPath="C:\Program Files\InedoAgent" /Port=46336 /TempPath="C:\ProgramData\InedoAgent" /ServiceName="INEDOAGENTSVC" /Security=AES /EncryptionKey="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
Available Arguments
| Name | Default Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| S | (not applicable) | This argument instructs the installer not to display a window, and does not have an argument-value |
| TargetPath | %ProgramFiles%\InedoAgent | The directory that will contain the service's executable and supporting files. If specified, argument-value must be an absolute path (i.e. %PROGRAMFILES will not expand) |
| Port | 46336 | |
| TempPath | %ProgramData%\InedoAgent | The base directory for any ProductRootPath option not explicitly specified. If specified, argument-value must be an absolute path (i.e. %PROGRAMDATA will not expand) |
| UserAccount | LocalSystem | The user account to run the service under. For built-in accounts, use NetworkService or LocalSystem |
| Password | The password for UserAccount. Omit this field for built-in accounts. | |
| ServiceName | INEDOAGENTSVC | |
| Security | AES | Also accepts SSL or None. It is recommended that this is left as AES as the other options do not have any way of validating the identity of the client. |
| CertificateName | Used if Security is set to SSL. Represents the case-sensitive friendly name of a certificate in the Local Machine store. | |
| EncryptionKey | Used if Security is set to AES. Must be a 32-character hex string. If EncryptionKey is not specified, one will be randomly generated (which could overwrite an existing key on upgrade). |
