Prior to running the setup commands below, you will need to ensure all of the prerequisites have been meet. Please see the Administration Installation Guide.pdf for additional details on the prerequisites. There are two Microsoft Components that must be installed on the client machines prior to running the install:

Microsoft DOT Net 3.5 SP1 -- Included with the DRA Install Media

Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable -- Separate download from Microsoft. Not included in the install media as a separate install file, only installed with the interactive setup program for DRA.

To install the Delegation and Configuration Console:

MSIEXEC.exe /i ?<installer package location>\NetIQAdmin.msi" TRANSFORMS=?<installer package location>\NetIQDRAAdminConsole.mst? /qb /L*v <Path & File name, to save a Text File for Setup logging>

 

MSIEXEC.exe /i ?<installer package location>\NetIQAdmin.msi" TRANSFORMS=?<installer package location>\NetIQDRAUserConsole.mst ? /qb /L*v <Path & File name, to save a Text File for Setup logging>

Some environments may require a batch or scripted install of the DRA Console. When doing a scripted or batch install, it might be necessary to suppress the user dialog boxes.
