Preparing a device for remote installation in non-interactive mode

To prepare a device for remote installation in non-interactive mode:

Run the riprep.exe file on the client device from the command line with the requisite set of keys.

Utility command line syntax:

riprep.exe [-silent] [-cfg CONFIG_FILE] [-tl traceLevel]

Descriptions of the keys:

• -silent—Starts the utility in the non-interactive mode.
• -cfg CONFIG_FILE—Defines the utility configuration, where CONFIG_FILE is the path to the configuration file (a file with the .ini extension).
• -tl traceLevel—Defines the trace level, where traceLevel is a number from 0 to 5. If no key is specified, the value 0 is used.

You can perform the following tasks by starting the utility in silent mode:

• Disabling the simple sharing of files
• Starting the Server service on the client device
• Opening the ports
• Creating a local account
• Disabling User Account Control (UAC)

You can specify the parameters for device preparation for remote installation in the configuration file specified in the -cfg key. To define these parameters, add the following information to the configuration file:

• In the Common section, specify the tasks to be performed:
  • DisableSFS—Disable the simple sharing of files (0 —the task is disabled; 1 —the task is enabled).
  • StartServer—Start the Server service (0 —the task is disabled; 1 —the task is enabled).
  • OpenFirewallPorts—Open the necessary ports (0 —the task is disabled; 1 —the task is enabled).
  • DisableUAC—Disable User Account Control (UAC) (0 —the task is disabled; 1 —the task is enabled).
  • RebootType—Define behavior if restart of device is required when UAC is disabled. You can use the following values:
    • 0—Never restart the device.
    • 1—Restart the device, if UAC was enabled before starting the utility.
    • 2—Force restart, if UAC was enabled before starting the utility.
    • 4—Always restart the device.
    • 5—Always restart the device with force.
• In the UserAccount section, specify the account name (user) and its password (Pwd).

Sample context of the configuration file:

After the utility completes, the following files will be created in the utility start folder:

• riprep.txt—Operation report, in which phases of the utility operation are listed with reasons for these operations.
• riprep.log—Trace file (created if the tracing level is set above 0).
