For administrative installations, this specifies the path to the original shipped Client.msi. file. Msiexec.exe uses this file to generate a source image. Find this file on your CA Data Protection distribution media.
When installing or uninstalling client machines, this specifies the path to the Client.msi file in the CA Data Protection source image on your network. This is the file created by the administrative installation.
If the path includes folder names with spaces, you must enclose the path in quotes.
Various /q options let you specify silent or near-silent installations or uninstallations. For example:
msiexec /i <Path>\client.msi /qn
msiexec /x <Path>\client.msi /qb
