Though this is in the documentation I thought I would push this out with a few more details as we get a good amount of requests on this topic.  Most are looking for two things:

Install SV silently (no prompts)

Install SV and pass in the Shared Connections URL

The Smart View installer is built with Install Shield and therefore it supports most Install Shield command line switches along with standard windows installer switches.  To properly understand how these switches work you should understand the basics of the Smart View install along with most windows installers.  There are really two main parts:

Setup.exe this is a bootstrapper that does thing like handles languages and dependencies and also contains and launches an MSI.

Smart View MSI file is the windows installer file that controls the rest of the setup like laying down files and writing to the registry among other things.

Each part of the installation accepts various command line switches:

Switch Description Applies To /s Runs in silent mode Setup.exe /v Passes command line parameters to the MSI file Setup.exe /a Runs as an administrator Setup.exe /qn Runs in silent mode MSI File URL= Shared Connections URL MSI File

Note:  Any thing you need to pass to the MSI must be passed from setup.exe using /v and must be in quotes.

Examples:

Run in silent mode:

SmartView.exe /s /v"/qn"

Run in silent mode with the Shared Connection URL:

SmartView.exe /s /v"/qn URL=http://server:port/workspace/SmartViewProviders"

Run in normal mode with the Shared Connection URL:

SmartView.exe /v" URL=http://server:port/workspace/SmartViewProviders"
