Prevent Automatic Startup: DisableAutoStart_Client.mst

By default, CA Data Protection starts automatically immediately after installation on servers and client machines. But for command line, Group Policy or SMS installations, you can use the DisableAutostart_Package.mst transform to prevent this.

1. Find the DisableAutostart.vbs script in the \Support folder of your CA Data Protection distribution media.
2. Run the DisableAutostart.vbs script. The script automatically detects which administrative installations are present in the local folder and generates a transform for each package:

   The script creates one or more DisableAutostart_Package.mst transforms.

   • DisableAutoStart_Client.mst
   • DisableAutoStart_Client_x64.mst
   • DisableAutoStart_Integration.mst
   • DisableAutoStart_Integration_x64.mst
   • DisableAutoStart_Server.mst
   • DisableAutoStart_Server_x64.mst
3. Copy the transforms into the folder containing your administrative installation source image.
4. Reference the transform as an option for Msiexec.exe, as part of the program for an SMS distribution package, or as a modification to a Group Policy installation package.
