Using the install manifest "default" setting for silent feature specification

During a silent install, specify the features to install using the following information as a guide.

Considerations when installing Notes® on a system on which a Notes® installation does not currently exist:

  • If the ADDFEATURES property is specified on the command line, use that property to determine which installfeatures (in the install.xml file) should be installed.
  • If ADDFEATURES is not specified on command line, use the "default" setting of each installfeature (in the install manifest) to determine if a feature should be installed.

    In this situation, the only installfeatures that will be installed if "default" is set to "true" are those where the "show" attribute is also set to "true" -- these are the installfeatures that would have appeared in the Notes® feature installation panel.

Considerations when installing Notes® on a system in which an upgradable version of Notes® exists:

  • You can use the ADDFEATURES property on the MSI command line to specify which installfeatures should be installed or upgraded when you run the setup.exe command line.
  • You can use the REMOVEFEATURES property on the MSI command line to specify which installfeatures to remove from the existing install when you run the setup.exe command line.
