Enter an action that will be performed whenever the user chooses to repair the bundle by
repairing or reinstalling missing or corrupted files.
The root parameter, which should not be edited or deleted, is:
/f packagename.msi
By default, the
/qn
silently (with no user interface). This is the common operating behavior for installing
software with ZENworks. Running an operation silently implies that it does not require any
user input.
Caution • If this operation requires user input, either remove the /qn parameter, or create a
response transform to preconfigure all user input. For more information, see
Transforms.
You can also apply any of the following additional parameters after the package name:
•
p – Reinstalls a file if it is missing
•
o – Reinstalls a file if it is missing or if an older version of the file is present on the
user's system
•
e – Reinstalls a file if it is missing or if an equivalent or older version of the file is
present on the user's system
•
c – Reinstalls a file if it is missing or if the stored checksum of the installed file does
not match the new file's value
• a – Forces a reinstall of all files
•
u or m – Rewrite all required user registry entries
•
s – Overwrites any existing shortcuts
•
v – Runs your application from the source and re-caches the local installation
package
