Veeam Installer Service silent install
Hi Veeam forums
Have anyone managed to get the Veeam Installer Service to silently install?
The Helpcenter article is not helping much: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=110
No description on which flags to make the MSI silently install.
I've tried the following:
VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /qn /norestart
VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /qn
VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /quiet
VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /quiet /norestart
VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /passive
msiexec.exe /i VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /qn /norestart
msiexec.exe /i VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /qn
msiexec.exe /i VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /quiet
msiexec.exe /i VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /quiet /norestart
msiexec.exe /i VeeamInstallerSvc.msi /passive
It just doesn't install
Any pro tips?

Re: Veeam Installer Service silent install
Hi Gert,
Personally I deploy every component via Powershell, but parameters are just passed to msiexec so its same stuff.
That works just fine:

Code: Select all
# Veeam Installer Service
Write-Host "Veeam Installer Service..." -ForegroundColor Yellow
$MSIArguments = @(
"/qn"
"/i"
"C:\Temp\VeeamInstallerSvc.msi"
"ACCEPT_THIRDPARTY_LICENSES=1"
"ACCEPTEULA=1"
"/L*v"
"C:\Temp\01_VeeamInstaller.txt"
)
Start-Process "msiexec.exe" -ArgumentList $MSIArguments -Wait -NoNewWindow | Out-Null

Hi Egor
Thanks for the help, it seemed I was missing the flags/options: ACCEPT_THIRDPARTY_LICENSES=1 + ACCEPTEULA=1
Usually in MSI files the /silent options suppress or auto accepts the EULA's.
I tried different combinations, and it with this installer both needs to be accepted.

Re: Veeam Installer Service silent install
Just in case anyone has problems with this i recently had to deploy the Veeam installer service and found this thread. However using the arguments supplied by Egor did not work for us. After som trouble shooting we found that we had to add some additional licensing arguments. The final command:
msiexec.exe /i "VeeamInstallerSvc.msi" /qn /norestart ACCEPT_EULA=1 ACCEPT_LICENSING_POLICY=1 ACCEPT_REQUIRED_SOFTWARE=1 ACCEPT_THIRDPARTY_LICENSES=1
Seems just a little excessive to me but as long as you know i guess its fine. There really should be some sort of documentation for these parameters (Even Veeams own support does not seem know)
msiexec.exe /i "VeeamInstallerSvc.msi" /qn /norestart ACCEPT_EULA=1 ACCEPT_LICENSING_POLICY=1 ACCEPT_REQUIRED_SOFTWARE=1 ACCEPT_THIRDPARTY_LICENSES=1

Hi Kristian.
You are absolutely right, as msi keys has been adjusted between versions since my last post in this thread.
p.s. Not related to the Installer service "as is", but please note that we have reworked entire silent install process from being MSI-driven into a single answer file approach, which opens additional installation options to discover for Veeam Backup & Replication as a whole
/Cheers!
