Product Features

When you install products using an options file, the following two values may be specified for each product:

A visible option, which can use one of the following values:
- true: Indicates that the feature is displayed in the MicroStrategy Installation Wizard as available for installation.
- false: Indicates that the feature is not displayed in the MicroStrategy Installation Wizard as available for installation. If you define a product's visible option as false, it cannot be installed.
If no value is specified, the default is true for all products. You can also define the visible option for all products using the parameter SelectComponents.visible. You can exclude these visible options for each product if you are using the options file as part of a completely silent installation where no user interface is displayed to the user.
An active option, which can use one of the following values:
- true: Indicates that the feature is selected for installation.
- false: Indicates that the feature is not selected for installation, or the product is to be uninstalled as part of an installation that modifies or uninstalls previously installed MicroStrategy software.

Install on Demand Options

You can reduce the amount of data that has to be downloaded for the installation by excluding some of the .tzp files, located in the DataFiles folder, from the download. You can use this technique to download only the files required to complete your MicroStrategy installation, which can then also be used to reduce the amount of data packaged and downloaded for other MicroStrategy installations.

If you are performing a MicroStrategy installation, you must include all of the files provided as part of the Update installation in their default location. This means that you cannot use the options below to point to the location of the Update installation files.

To reduce the amount of data required for MicroStrategy installations, you first need to determine the files required to support your installation of MicroStrategy, as described in Creating Custom Installation Packages. Once you determine and collect the .tzp files required to support your MicroStrategy installation, you can specify the location of these files using the following parameters:

InstallOnDemand.style=<Value>
Determines whether the required installation files are provided in a folder or at a URL. You must define this parameter with one of the following values:
- FileSystem: Type this value if the required installation files are stored in a folder on the local machine or a server machine. You must also provide the location of the files using the InstallOnDemand.sourceLocation parameter.
- HTTP: Type this value if the required installation files are stored at an unsecured URL. You must also provide the location of the files using the InstallOnDemand.url parameter.
- HTTPS: Type this value if the required installation files are stored at a secured URL. You must also provide the location of the files using the InstallOnDemand.url parameter, as well as the user name and password to access the URL using the InstallOnDemand.username and InstallOnDemand.password parameters.
InstallOnDemand.sourceLocation=<Value>Location of the folder that stores any required installation files. Type the location of the local file path. If you store the files in a local folder, do not provide a location for the InstallOnDemand.url parameter.
InstallOnDemand.url=<Value>Location of the URL for the HTTP or HTTPS location that stores any required installation files. Type the URL for the location that stores any required installation files. If you store the files at an HTTP or HTTPS location, do not provide a location for the InstallOnDemand.sourceLocation parameter.
InstallOnDemand.bypassCertificateChecking=<Value>If you retrieve the installation files from a URL location using HTTPS, you can use this setting to skip any certificate checking by defining this option to true. To maintain certificate checking, define this option as false.
InstallOnDemand.username=<Value>If you retrieve the installation files from a URL location, type a user name that has access to the URL location. If there is no login required to the URL or you retrieve the installation files from a local folder, you do not need to define a value for this parameter.
InstallOnDemand.password=<Value>If you retrieve the installation files from a URL location, type a password for the user name. If there is no login required to the URL or you retrieve the installation files from a local folder, you do not need to define a value for this parameter.
