Quiet mode installation is a technique that is used by many customers who want to install BlueZone on a large number of end users machines through a remote software installation and management program. An example is Microsoft's Systems Management Server, typically referred to as SMS.

Since there is no user interface during a quiet mode installation, there is no opportunity for the end user to select options that are normally chosen through this interface.

To perform a quiet mode installation, you must use the Windows Installer (MSIEXEC.EXE) through a DOS command line. The Windows Installer works in conjunction with the BlueZone.MSI file and the SETUP.INI file to control the BlueZone installation. Before running the Windows Installer, you must become familiar with the BlueZone settings that are controlled by the SETUP.INI file.
