Installing client software

Is there documentation anywhere on installing the deadline client in an unattended mode? Like what are the command line switches and so forth?

Thanks.

For Deadline 6, just run the installer from a command prompt/terminal with the -help flag to see the available options. It works for all 3 operating systems, but for the Mac, you need to run the sh script that’s inside the installer package (see the first paragraph here):
thinkboxsoftware.com/deadlin … t/#Mac_OSX

For Deadline 5, you can run the Windows installer with the /help flag and the Linux installer with the --help flag to get the available options.

Cheers,

Copy pasting from my other thread. But this should be just about everything you need if you want it running as a service on a domain in windows:

\\path\to\installer.exe --launcherservice true --serviceuser domain\username --servicepassword P455W0RD --licenseserver @licenseserver --repositorydir \\path\to\repo --mode unattended

Nice! Thanks alot guys.
