Using installation parameter files

You can use the /CPF: command to create a parameter file that contains all of the command line options you provided. This parameter file can then be used to provide the options for installing either Backup Exec or the Remote Administrator.

See Creating installation parameter files.

To use installation parameter files

  1. Open a Windows command prompt.

  2. Change to the drive containing the Backup Exec installation media.

  3. Change directories to \WINNT\INSTALL\BE.

  4. Type:SETUP /PARAMS:"A:\file name" /S:

  5. If you want to overwrite a parameter, specify the new parameter. For example, to change the password, type:SETUP /PARAMS:"A:\file name" /PASS:new password/S:
