Silent Installations and Removals

Installing the Navisphere Initialization Utility

We recommend that you install the Navisphere Storage System
Initialization Utility on at least one server attached to a CX-Series
storage system. It is not required that you install it on every server.

Important

We do not recommend that you install Navisphere Initialization

Utility using the command line interface unless you are an advanced user. If
you are not, we recommend that you install the utility as described on
Installing the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility on page 2-3.

To perform a silent installation for the Initialization Utility follow the
procedure below.

Preparing for the installation

1. Log in to the Windows server as Administrator or someone who

has administrative privileges.

2. If the Initialization Utility is already installed, you must remove

the program you are updating, as described on page A-6. The
installation program does not let you overwrite an existing utility.

Important

To perform a silent removal, all versions of the utility must be

running the same revision on each attached Windows server.

3. In the server’s drive, insert the server support CD that shipped

with your storage system or your upgrade kit (for AX-Series
systems upgrading to Navisphere Manager).

4. From the CD-ROM directory, navigate to the windows >

navi_storage_system_initialization

folder or the windows >

AX100_storage_system_initialization

folder.

5. Select the Navisphere_Initialization_Wizard.exe file or the

Install_Navisphere_Initialization_Wizard.exe

file.

6. Click Next in the Navisphere Storage System Initialization

Wizard - Welcome

dialog box.

7. Click Browse to select the folder where the files should be

unpacked then click Continue.

The Navisphere Initialization Utility Setup.exe file and all
supporting files are unpacked to the specified folder.
