Noticed that LabView 6.1 is an MSI-based installation. But setup.exe has very few optional switches:
/? or /h - displays help
/q - silent install, requiring the user to register the first time it's run
/l - log file, same syntax as MSI
SpecFile - no further information available
The silent install (/q) is nice, but it runs a *complete* installation and installs *everything*. And then it requires the user to register the product the first time it's run.
Does anyone have more info on the SPECFILE parameter (like examples of how the file should be formatted).
We're mostly interested in:
- running a custom installation
- excluding most of the drivers
- disabling (or not including) the FlexLM service for
the Remote Console feature
- including registration information during the install
- specifying the location of the installation folder and program icons
- suppressing the reboot
Most of this is simple to accomplish with a transform (MST) file.
Are any of these features available with the LabView 6.1 installation?
Can LabView 6.1 be transformed? If so, which MSI (there are several).
