Installing i2 applications

Installing i2® applications with Product Access Management enabled allows permits to be requested from the server.

You can use msiexec to install i2 applications and enable Product Access Management. Use standard msiexec command-line options to install applications in a suitable way.

msiexec /i "package_name.msi" I2LIC_ENABLED="#1"

Where package_name applies to the appropriate packages for the i2 product:

Product Packages
Analyst's Notebook i2 Analyst's Notebook 9.msi
Analyst's Notebook Premium i2 Analyst's Notebook Premium 9.msi
iBase i2 iBase 9.msi
Use the I2LIC_ENABLED property only with packages for Product Access Management enabled i2 applications. To enable Product Access Management for the application, set the I2LIC_ENABLED property to "#1"; set it to "#0" to disable.
Note: If you use msiexec with the full user interface enabled, Product Access Management is not displayed in the feature list. Nonetheless, if you set the I2LIC_ENABLED property to "#1", Product Access Management is enabled.
The default feature selection of the i2 iBase 9.msi package consists of iBase User with examples, documentation, and help. If you are using msiexec with the basic, reduced, or no user interface option, and want to install other features like iBase Designer, use the ADDLOCAL property to specify which features to install. Commands that install iBase with common features and enable access management are described in this table:

You can use the following properties that are specific to product access management:
Property Description
I2LIC_SERVERS Sets the server list. A comma-separated list of server names that must contain no spaces.

For example, msiexec /i "i2 Analyst's Notebook 9.msi" I2LIC_ENABLED="#1" I2LIC_SERVERS=server1,server2
I2LIC_BROADCASTS_ENABLED Enables network broadcast on the client. "#1" to enable, "#0" to disable.

For example, msiexec /i "i2 Analyst's Notebook 9.msi" I2LIC_ENABLED="#1" I2LIC_BROADCASTS_ENABLED="#1"
You can also use the Product Access Console that is installed on the client to modify the server list and enable network broadcast. If you use msiexec with the full user interface enabled, select Configure Product Access Management now on the final installation wizard stage and click Finish. The Product Access Console is displayed. Alternatively, click i2 Tools > Product Access Console. For more information, see Setting server connection options.
