The Simplify Suite install is available in MSI format, allowing for silent installations and deployment through Active Directory. To download the MSI version of the Suite installer, please contact triCerat support. Silent install is initialized using the /q switch with msiexec.exe, and then passing in values for properties. The command line syntax to set a property is PROPERTY=VALUE. Valid properties include:

INSTALLDIR
SQLSERVERNAME
SQLTRUSTED
SQLUSERNAME
SQLPASSWORD

Below is an example of correct syntax to begin a silent installation of Simplify Suite.

msiexec /i simplify.msi /q SQLSERVERNAME=SQLSVR SQLTRUSTED=no SQLUSERNAME=sa SQLPASSWORD=sapwd

SQLUSERNAME and SQLPASSWORD are only necessary when SQLTRUSTED=no. If SQLTRUSTED=yes, then the install ignores the SQL username and password.

A silent installation cannot be performed using the install bundled with SQL Express. Instead, the MSI Suite install is required.
