Title: MBG and MiCC Client Component Pack Automation
Post by: hcollins on July 08, 2016, 02:40:07 PM

We're in the process of installing the MiCC Client Component Pack for the enterprise platform and will need a way to mass deploy this installer, along with the MBG.

Has anyone done an unattended mass install of either?

MBG isn't deployed to the client, it is a server side only service that sits at the network edge...

MiCC client can be deployed like any other app via Group Policy, SCCM, ManageEngine Desktop Central, or whatever deployment strategy you chose, it is a standard MSI file to the user. Unless you are doing AD integration, remember that the user will still need the welcome email to get their login credentials.

Unfortunately thats not quite the case anymore, its now an Exe file so can cause some challenges. Think they changed it about rel 7

Really? Hmm... There must an automatic or silent install command line parameter, I'll try to peek at it this week if I get a chance.

Thanks all for checking on this. I don't want to end up installing to 80 different machines, way too time consuming since the pack takes about 15 minutes per machine from start to finish.

Ideally I can script the silent install on each machine, along with the MBG, and use a GPO to push a script that uses XML to inject a random MAC address into a file, and moves that file to the targetd machines in the proper directory. (c:\programdata\prairie...etc). That's how far I'm willing to go to make sure this is autoamted. In theory it should work.

My server with MiCollab 7.1 still has the MSI files, they are located in /usr/ucs/dl/
