SAS Enterprise Guide 7 -- Silent Installation

MariaD — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 17:44:25 GMT

Folks,

We are change our SAS Enterprise Guide installation for the new version. To speed up the installation process, we want to use silent installation mode to do that. We don't have a propagation manager software. Is there any way to add the computer name into command line? We have almost 100 installations to complete.

Regards,

Hello @MariaD,

when you have that large amount of installations, I would highly recommend client virtualization software, such as Microsoft App-V, Citrix or VMWare ThinApp. Or a Terminal Server.

However, and to answer your question, the best is to create a response file and modify it by script if needed.

I would like to suggest you to read:
