Command syntax for MSIEXEC.exe If you want more options when installing products from the command line, you can also use MSIEXEC.exe. For information about this application and its parameters, go to http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/ windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/msiexec.mspx. You can also open a help window by running MSIEXEC.exe /? from a Windows Command Prompt to see an abbreviated display of the command and its parameters. Licensing your software In all cases, you need a license key to start the product. Your license administrator can tell you which license key to use and where to obtain it. The License Key Administrator (LKAD) is a tool that imports license keys to your license server. LKAD provides a wizard to simplify the process. The Rational Setup wizard installs LKAD with each IBM Rational product. If the product is not already licensed, you can start the LKAD wizard when the installation process is finished. You can also start LKAD by clicking Start > Programs > IBM Rational > IBM Rational License Key Administrator. The LKAD main window and wizard page open simultaneously. For more information, see the LKAD Help. If you do not see the License Key Administrator (LKAD) start at the end of the installation, your product is already licensed. Follow the instructions in Table 4 to license your IBM Rational product. Table 4.

Your administrator must install and set up the license server first. (For instructions, see the IBM Rational License Management Guide.) If your administrator has set up a release area, you might not have to specify the license server in the LKAD wizard. 24 IBM Rational Rose: Installation Guide
