Hi All, i'm trying to deploy 2021 R9 accross a large site, but I cannot for the life of me get the options to work, failing on a single machine let alone a remote deployment.

According to the documentation, I should be using somthing like:

BT2021_R9_186892_Full_x64.exe /s /v"/qn REMOVE=PrintPortal SLS_PRIMARY=10.1.10.47 SLS_SECONDARY=172.16.26.195"

This sits for a while before giving me a Invalid commandline error.

I've tried various versions, and even a basic BT2021_R9_186892_Full_x64.exe /s fails

Doing BT2021_R9_186892_Full_x64.exe /? brings up commandline options, but they don't match the documentation.

All I want to do is install quietly and point to our activation/licencing server.

thanks

  Not sure for definite but it looks you are using some old commands with the SLS references. Have you seen this?

  Ahh that works, I didn't find that one in my searches, might be worth updating the help so its clearer which one to use with which version.

  Thanks for the assistance.
