Installation
| Before starting the installation, all Flexera-enabled applications need to be closed. Otherwise, a pop-up will notify you if there are running applications that must be closed. | |
| Components | The following components will be installed: • CLM License Manager |
| Silent mode (Advanced) | Open a command line prompt and type: start /wait clm_package_x.x.x.x.exe /s [/log <logfile>] [/xmllog=”PathToXmlLogFile”] [ROOTPATH=”PathToInstallFolder”] The installation is skipped if the same version of CLM is already installed. |
Command line arguments
