Installing the Admin Component from the Command Line

You can install FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications Admin from the command line. When installing from the command line, you must run the installer and the Configurator separately.

To install the Admin component from the command line:

1. Open a Command Prompt window, and run the installer, using the following command:
On Microsoft Windows:

flexnet_manager_admin-<version number>-<platform>.<ext> -i console

On UNIX:

flexnet_manager_admin-<version number>-<platform>.<ext> -i silent

2. After the installation finishes, in the Command Prompt window, change to the directory admin_install_directory. (Recall that this is the installation directory that you specified when running the installation.)
3. To start the Admin Configurator, type the following command:

flexnet site

The Configurator detects whether the display is set, and if it is not set, the Configurator runs in console mode.

4. See the installation wizard instructions for information about the installation and configuration settings.
5. After installation, you need to create the Admin database. See the section, Creating an Empty Admin Database , for instructions.
