Automatically installing client components on multiple workstations

You can use the MSI installer package and other Windows Installer technologies to automate client component installation on multiple workstations (for example, using a group policy).

If you choose to configure installation options by applying a transform to psns.msi, modify the following properties as necessary:

This parameter is used in a silent installation and is mutually exclusive with ADDLOCAL. Set to a value from 1 to 100 for a typical installation: PSNSFEATURE, PSNSSCRIPTFEATURE, PSNSSHORTCUT. Set to a value greater than 100 (up to 32767) for complete installation. The default is 1.

NOTESINIPATH

The path to the notes.ini file; for example, C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\notes.ini

This argument is required when the Notes desktop shortcut has been modified to explicitly specify the path to the notes.ini file. If not specified on the command line, then psns will attempt to auto-detect the notes.ini path.
