Unattended Installation

You can perform unattended installations of Workspace Control via the command line. You can use public properties for configuration. For more information, see Unattended Installation in the Workspace Control Administration Guide.
Two new public properties to specify the Shield API URL have been introduced. Of these new public properties, the first one (PRIMARYAPIURL) is mandatory for unattended installation of Workspace Control version 10.18.99.0 (Early Access) and higher.

New Public Property

  • PRIMARYAPIURL: Specifies the Primary Shield API URL to connect Workspace Control with Shield API.

  • SECONDARYAPIURL: Optionally specifies the Secondary Shield API URL to connect Workspace Control with Shield API.

Example Commands:

  • Creating a New Database

    Msiexec /i "C:\Ivanti Workspace Control [version].msi" DBSERVER=SQLSERVER01 DBNAME=Workspace DBUSER=WorkspaceUser DBPASSWORD=WorkspaceUserPassword DBTYPE=MSSQL DBPROTOCOLENCRYPTION=No DBCREATE=Yes DBCREATEUSER=SA DBCREATEPASSWORD=SAPassword PRIMARYAPIURL- =https://PRIMARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA SECONDARYAPIURL - =https://SECONDARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA /qn

  • Connecting to an Existing Database

    Msiexec /i "C:\Ivanti Workspace Control [version].msi" DBSERVER=SQLServer01 DBNAME=Workspace DBUSER=WorkspaceUser DBPASSWORD=WorkspaceUserPassword DBTYPE=MSSQL DBPROTOCOLENCRYPTION=Yes PRIMARYAPIURL- =https://PRIMARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA SECONDARYAPIURL - =https://SECONDARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA /qn

    You can still use existing connection strings or connect files, as long as you also provide the Shield API URL:

    Msiexec /i "C:\Ivanti Workspace Control [version].msi" CONNECTFILE=C:\TEMP\Connectfile.txt PRIMARYAPIURL- =https://PRIMARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA SECONDARYAPIURL - =https://SECONDARYSHIELDSERVER.VANTOSI.COM:443/#3200000006C69C1E78A0EF3AFF000000000006#B16A6- ADEB85BF6DB05E4E2B57D26AFDA76ECA9BA /qn
