Installation Silent Installations for the Navisphere Initialization and Server Utilities Silent installations and removals use a command line interface to install or remove the Initialization or Server Utility on all attached Windows servers. To perform the installation or removal, you need to create a response file on one of the attached servers. A response file stores the setup configuration, which allows you to install or remove the utilities on all remaining attached Windows servers by using one command that requires no user input. Silent installations and removals are supported on Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000 operating systems only. Installing the Navisphere Initialization Utility We recommend that you install the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility on at least one server attached to an AX-Series storage system. It is not required that you install it on every server. Important We do not recommend that you install Navisphere Initialization Utility using the command line interface unless you are an advanced user. If you are not, we recommend that you install the utility as described in the installation guide for your configuration. To perform a silent installation for the Initialization Utility follow the procedure below. Preparing for the Installation 1. Log in to the Windows server as Administrator or someone who has administrative privileges. 2. If the Initialization Utility is already installed, you must remove it by using Windows Add/Remove program. The installation program does not let you overwrite an existing utility. Important To perform a silent removal, all versions of the utility must be running the same revision on each attached Windows server. 3. Insert the AX-Series Server Support CD in the server's drive. 4. From the CD-ROM directory, navigate to the windows > AX100_storage_system_initialization folder. 5. Select the Install_Navisphere_Initialization_Wizard.exe file. EMC AX100-Series Integrated Management Software Release Notes 23
