SQL Server Unattended Install Script

Here is a SQL Server Unattended Install Script I wrote last week... was nice to get it working finally!!!

 

;the PIDKEY will show up in greyed out text boxes during a MANUAL Install... use this for the PIDKEY Parameter IF NECESSARY (probably not necessary) https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx#pidkey
;create a directory c:\binaries
;create a directory c:\data
;run the silent install from your install directory (here the V drive): 
;V:\>Setup.exe /settings C:/setup.ini /qb 
; /qn is quiet mode, no GUI is displayed.
; /qb is quiet mode, basic GUI information is displayed, no user interaction is required. Use /qb
;check for install errors: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG

;OR... you can run the install without a .ini file!:
;V:\>setup.exe /qb INSTANCENAME=FOO9 ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,Client_Components,Connectivity,SQL_Tools90,SQLXML,SQL_Documentation,SQL_BooksOnline,SQL_DatabaseSamples,SQL_AdventureWorksSamples,SQL_AdventureWorksDWSamples,SQL_AdventureWorksASSamples,SQL_Samples SAPWD=password SQLACCOUNT=ComputerName\administrator SQLPASSWORD=password  AGTACCOUNT=ComputerName\Administrator AGTPASSWORD=password  SQLBROWSERACCOUNT=ComputerName\administrator  SQLBROWSERPASSWORD=password
