Hi,

    Have you tried "/L" option with msiexec to log the error message
during the installation.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Silent installation script

Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to do my own TSM Client Deploy package to be able to upgrade
all my TSM clients from a TSM Server 5.4.
My script works fine and I'm able to do a successful upgrade any TSM BA
Client from 5.x/6.x to 6.2.1.3.

The only problem I have, are that my ERRORLEVEL check if the upgrade
went successful can't verify that MSIEXEC run correct, that is because
MSIEXEC seams to execute correctly but jump back direct to a new command
prompt.
And in the background are MSIEXEC running as a seperate process without
my knowledge

The command I'm running are following.

C:\tsm_images\TSMx86>msiexec /qn /i "IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
Client.msi" RebootYesNo="No" REBOOT="Suppress" ALLUSERS=1
ADDLOCAL="BackupArchiveGUI,BackupArchiveWeb,ApiRuntime"
TRANSFORMS=1033.mst

My question are, does anyone know if it possible to insert a switch call
/wait or something similar to make sure I can pull out the ERRORLEVEL
code of the installation?


Best Regards
Christian Svensson
