Windows Installer Command Line Options

This section lists the Windows Installer command line options (MSIEXEC.exe) that are available for deploying an agent or installing a coordinator.

For more information on using the Windows Installer (MSIEXEC.exe) see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367988(VS.85).aspx

Agent options
