If you set up certain Server Roles (Monitoring Agent, Cache Channel Service, Content Deployer (other protocols)) as Windows Services, you used the Content Delivery installer. When the installer finishes, it gives you the option to save the installation settings to make it easier to reinstall the same Server Role on a different machine. This topic explains how to reinstall these Server Roles, unattended, on a new machine.
Procedure
- Access the machine on which you want to reinstall one or more of the following Server Roles as a Windows Service:
- Monitoring Agent
- Cache Channel Service
- Content Deployer (other protocols)
- Ensure that you can access the XML file that contains the settings of your installation of the Server Role(s) from this machine.
- Open a command prompt.
- Access your installation media and from the \Content Delivery\installer\ folder, enter the following command:
startCDinstaller.bat path\to\myscript.xml
where path\to\myscript.xml is the path to, and name of, the XML installation settings file.
The installer performs an unattended install of the Server Role(s) as specified by the XML file.
