Install Silently

To install CA Access Control without interactive feedback, you can install CA Access Control silently using the command line.

To install CA Access Control silently

1. Log in to the Windows system as a user with Windows administrative privileges (that is, as the Windows administrator or a member of the Windows Administrators group.)
2. Close any applications that are running on your Windows system.
3. Insert the CA Access Control Endpoint Components for Windows DVD into your optical disc drive.

   The CA Access Control Product Explorer appears if you have autorun enabled.

4. Close the Product Explorer if it appears.
5. Open a command line and navigate to the following directory on the optical disc drive:

   \architecture
   

   architecture

   Defines the architecture abbreviation for your operating system.

   Can be one of X86, X64, and IA64.

6. Enter the following command:

   setup /s /v"/qn COMMAND=keyword <insert_params_here>"
   

   The <insert_params_here> variable specifies the installation settings you want to pass to the installation program.

   Note: To execute a silent installation you have to accept the license agreement. The keyword required for accepting the license agreement and silently installing CA Access Control is found at the bottom of the license agreement available when running the installation program.
