Save Time and Effort with QlikView Silent Installation!

Silent installation is a type of software installation that runs without requiring user interaction. Silent installation in QlikView is handy for installing applications on many machines or automating the installation procedure.

To perform a silent installation of QlikView, you will need to use the QlikView Setup.exe file and provide it with a set of command-line arguments. Here is an example of a command line for a silent installation of QlikView:

QlikView Setup.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART /LOADINF="install.inf"

The /VERYSILENT argument tells the installer to run without displaying any user interface. The /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES argument suppresses any message boxes that may appear during the installation process. The /NORESTART argument prevents the installer from restarting the computer after the installation is complete. The /LOADINF argument specifies the path to an INI file that contains the installation options.

You can customize the installation options by creating an INI file and specifying the desired options in it.

For example, you can specify the installation directory, the components to install, and the license key. You can find more information about the available installation options in the QlikView documentation.

To automate the silent installation of QlikView, you can create a script or use a tool such as Microsoft SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) to deploy the software to multiple computers.

Some key reasons why silent installation is important for QlikView are:

• Automation: Silent installation automates the process of installing QlikView, reducing the need for manual intervention and saving time. This can be especially useful when deploying QlikView to a large number of machines.
• Consistency: Silent installation ensures that the installation is consistent across all machines, reducing the potential for errors and ensuring that the software is configured correctly on all machines.
• Scalability: Silent installation allows for the efficient deployment of QlikView across a large number of machines, making it easy to scale the application as needed.
• Repeatability: Silent installation allows for the repeatable deployment of QlikView, making it easy to deploy the software to new machines or to update existing installations.
• Remote deployment: Silent installation allows for remote deployment of QlikView, which is useful for deploying the software to machines that are not physically accessible.

Overall, silent installation is an important aspect of deploying QlikView. It allows for the automated deployment of the software across multiple machines, saving time and resources, ensuring consistency, scalability, repeatability and remote deployment.
