Install and configure HIS 2020

  • Article

This installation guide includes basic steps to use the Host Integration Server 2020 setup installation and configuration.

Before you begin

Installation

  1. Double-click the HIS2020_Server_EN.msi file.

  2. In the License Agreement, accept the End User License Agreement. To customize your installation (optional):

    1. Select Advanced.

    2. In Destination Folder, you can optionally change the installation drive and directory.

    3. In Product Features, you can optionally choose the feature areas, tools, and sub features.

      Select Install to continue.

  3. When complete, select Finish.

Configuration

After you successfully install HIS, run configuration to:

  • Define security groups.
  • Enter service credentials.
  • Enable (configures) or disable (un-configures) features and tools. For example, configuration registers BizTalk Adapters and Visual Studio design tools.

Uninstall

  1. Open Programs and Features.

  2. In the list, select Microsoft Host Integration Server 2020 > Uninstall.

  3. When prompted if you're sure, select Yes.

In-place upgrade of HIS 2016

  1. Double-click the HIS2020_Server_EN.msi file.

  2. In the License Agreement, accept the End User License Agreement.

  3. Select Install to continue with the upgrade.

  4. When complete, select Finish.

After an in-place upgrade from HIS 2016 to HIS 2020, if the configuration tool isn't allowed to open at the end of setup, then the services may fail to start. Many of the services require the correct versions of the Visual C++ Runtime DLLs. These DLLs are installed by the configuration tool when it first starts. To fix this issue, open the Start menu, and open the configuration tool.

Unattended Installation

Install using the following command:

Output 
msiexec /i HIS2020_Server_EN.msi /quiet

A setup log is written to the %temp% folder.

To confirm the installation, go to \Program Files\Microsoft Host Integration Server, and confirm the HIS files are there.

Uninstall using the following command:

Output 
msiexec /x HIS2020_Server_EN.msi /quiet

A setup log is written to the %temp% folder.

To confirm the uninstallation, go to \Program Files\Microsoft Host Integration Server, and confirm the HIS files are removed.

For a list of MSIEXEC command line options, see the Installer documentation (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=799793).

Unattended Configuration

Configure using the command:

Output 
ConfigurationWizard.exe /APPLY HIS2020.configurationfile.config

The config file can be created by running the Configuration Wizard as a UI program. Run ConfigurationWizard.exe with no parameters, or run Configuration under the Microsoft Host Integration Server 2020 programs list.

Unconfigure using the command:

Output 
ConfigurationWizard.exe /u

Unattended Installation and Configuration

Install and Configure using the command:

Output 
msiexec /i HIS2020_Server_EN.msi /quiet CONFIGURATIONFILE= HIS2020.configurationfile.config

Disable Telemetry

Opt-out through UI

In the Configuration tool > Common setting panel, uncheck Turn on Telemetry to help improve the quality, reliability and performance.

Opt-out through PowerShell

You can use the following PowerShell script to enable or disable telemetry:

Import-Module Microsoft.HostIntegration.PowerShell

Output 
$c = Import-HisConfiguration
$cs = $c | Get-HisFeature -CommonSettings
$cs.EnableTelemetry = $false
$c.Apply()
