In addition to command line installations, administrators can enable silent installations—installations that do not require settings to be specified each time—for Oracle Smart View for Office. The silent installation command can be included in scripts to automate installation.
Note:
Silent installations are not supported for non-admin users.
The silent installer wrapper follows these rules:
It passes the value of the /v
parameter intact to the MSI.
The /s
flag is converted to /qn
and passed to the MSI. There is no need to specify the /qn
parameter if /s
is already present in your script.
Unless the /v
parameter contains any /q
specifier, the wrapper passes /qb+
to the MSI.
