Description |
|
/L<localeID> |
Optional. Specifies the language for installation log messages. The default value (1033 - English (United States)) is the only available value.

Support for other languages will be available in a subsequent release. |
|
\"logFileName” |
Optional. Specifies the path and name of the installation log file. If the logFileName includes spaces, enclose the value in double quotation marks.

|
UIREG_NETADDRESS=webUIAddress |
Specifies the host name or IP address of the Portal for managing the Hyper-V Agent. Example: UIREG_NETADDRESS=192.0.2.233 Specifying the host name is recommended. This will allow DNS to handle IP address changes. |
|
UIREG_PORT=webUIportNumber |
Optional. Specifies the port number used to communicate with Portal. Example: UIREG_PORT=8086 If you do not specify a webUIportNumber, port 8086 is used for communicating with Portal. |

|
COORDINATOR_PORT=portNumber |

|
INSTALLDIR=\"installFolder" |
Optional. Specifies the installation folder for the Management service, if you do not want to install the Management service in the default location. The installation folder must be enclosed in double quotation marks if there are spaces in the path.
