Unattended Installation OF SQL SErveR 2005

  • Hi guys i am trying to install 2005 SQL server(enterprise) on 80-100 servers, mostly with default instances and some with named instances( may be 30 of htem) on 2003 Windpws enterprise platform. i wanted to unattended installation and also if all the configurations are the same, can i install on all servers at time.

    Some pros and cons are appreciated and also if you got better scripts please do share it,

    Thanks

  • I wrote an unattended install for my client tools and it worked quite well. Just look at the template.ini on your install disk. It has instructions and all of the options for doing an unattended install.

    From what I have read you can export your config setting and push them out to other servers but I have never done it myself nor do I know exactly how.
