NetBackup™ Self Service Installation Guide

Silent install

Before you attempt to install NetBackup Self Service, confirm that the current computer meets all installation requirements for NetBackup Self Service. These requirements include confirming there is not an older version of NetBackup Self Service already installed.

To install NetBackup Self Service silently:

  1. Edit the configuration file Install.ini. Be sure to update the DatabaseServer, UserNameForSA and PasswordForSA settings.

    You can set UseWindowsAuthentication=1 and leave the PasswordForSA value empty if you want to use windows authentication to log on SQL Server.

  2. Right click the install_directory\SilentInstall.bat and select Run as administrator. The installation starts and the command-line window displays the installation progress. The command-line window closes after the installation completes.

    You can also launch the silent install directly from the command line. Open a command prompt, change to the directory that contains the SilentInstall.bat file, and then run SilentInstall.bat.

An installation log file, timestamp_install.log, is generated in the same directory as the SilentInstall.bat file. Review this file to see the installation results. If the installation succeeded, you can visit https://domainname/NetBackupSelfService for testing. If the installation failed, troubleshooting information is found in the installation log.
