Install Using CLI: Windows
Optionally perform a silent installation of Seeker on Windows using the CLI (Command Line Interface).
Running the Silent Installer in Synchronous Mode
Start the Windows Command Prompt, and run the downloaded
SeekerSetup.exe file in synchronous mode. Use the start
/b /wait flags before the SeekerSetup.exe command, for
example: start /b /wait SeekerSetup.exe /S /install_type=1
/install_path="c:\Synopsys\Seeker" /seeker_http_port=8080
/seeker_https_port=8443.
The installer will write a number of output messages ending with the following:
Seeker Installer: Seeker silent installation finished
successfully.
