Server Manager command line syntax and parameters

The following sections show the syntax and command-line parameters and options for ServerManagerCmd.exe.

Syntax

ServerManagerCmd.exe -query [<query.xml>] [-logPath <log.txt>]

ServerManagerCmd.exe -inputPath <answer.xml> [-resultPath <result.xml> [-restart] | -whatIf] [-logPath <log.txt>]

ServerManagerCmd.exe -install <command-Id> [-allSubFeatures] [-resultPath <result.xml> [-restart] | -whatIf] [-logPath <log.txt>]

ServerManagerCmd.exe -remove <command-Id> [-resultPath <result.xml> [-restart] | -whatIf] [-logPath <log.txt>]

ServerManagerCmd.exe [-help | -?]

ServerManagerCmd.exe -version

Parameters

Parameter Description

-query [<query.xml>]

Displays a list of all roles, role services, and features installed and available for installation on the server. You can also use the short form of this parameter, -q.

If you want the query results saved to an XML file, specify an XML file to replace query.xml.

-inputPath <answer.xml>

Installs or removes the roles, role services, and features specified in the answer file, an XML file represented by answer.xml. You can also use the short form of this parameter, -p.

-install <Id>

Installs the role, role service, or feature specified by Id. See Role, role service, and feature command identifiers in this topic for a complete list of the role, role service, or feature identifiers from which you can choose to specify for Id. The identifiers are case-insensitive.

The following optional parameters are used with the -install parameter.

  • -setting <setting name>=<setting value> – Specify required settings for the installation. See Role, role service, and feature command identifiers in this topic for a complete list of available settings.

  • -allSubFeatures – Specify the installation of all subordinate services and features along with the parent role, role service, or feature named in the -install command's Id parameter. Note that some role containers do not have a command line identifier to allow installation of all role services. This is the case when role services cannot be installed in the same instance of the Server Manager command. For example, the Federation Service role service of Active Directory Federation Services and the Federation Service Proxy role service cannot be installed by using the same Server Manager command instance.

  • -resultPath <result.xml> – Saves installation results to an XML file represented by result.xml. You can also use the short form of this parameter, -r. You cannot use the -resultPath parameter and the -whatIf parameter in the same instance of ServerManagerCmd.exe.

  • -restart – Adding -restart to the -install command restarts the computer automatically when installation is complete, if restarting is required by the roles or features installed.

  • -whatIf – You can use -whatIf to display any operations specified for the -install command. You can also use the short form of the -whatIf parameter, -w. You cannot use the -resultPath parameter and the -whatIf parameter in the same instance of ServerManagerCmd.exe.

  • -logPath <log.txt> – Use -logPath to specify a name and location for the log file, other than the default, %windir%\temp\servermanager.log.

-remove <Id>

Removes the role, role service, or feature specified by Id. See Role, role service, and feature command identifiers in this topic for a complete list of the role, role service, and feature identifiers from which you can choose to specify for Id. The identifiers are case-insensitive.

The following optional parameters are used with the -remove parameter.

  • -resultPath <result.xml> – Saves removal results to an XML file represented by result.xml. You can also use the short form of this parameter, -r. Note that you cannot use the -resultPath parameter and the -whatIf parameter in the same instance of ServerManagerCmd.exe.

  • -restart – Adding -restart to the -remove command restarts the computer automatically when removal is complete, if restarting is required by remaining roles or features.

  • -whatIf – You can use -whatIf to display any operations specified for the -remove command. You can also use the short form of the -whatIf parameter, -w. You cannot use the -resultPath parameter and the -whatIf parameter in the same instance of ServerManagerCmd.exe.

  • -logPath <log.txt> – Use -logPath to specify a name and location for the log file, other than the default, %windir%\temp\servermanager.log.

-help

Display Help for ServerManagerCmd.exe in the command window. You can also use the short form, -?.

-version

Display the Server Manager version number. You can also use the short form, -v.

Role, role service, and feature command identifiers

The tables in this section match roles, role services, and features available in Windows Server 2008 with the command identifiers you must use with ServerManagerCmd.exe to install or remove them.

Role and Role Service command identifiers

Active Directory Certificate Services command identifiers Command value Notes

Active Directory Certificate Services

(No command)

Certification Authority and Online Certificate Status Protocol can be installed by using the Server Manager command-line interface. Other role services for Active Directory Certificate Services cannot be installed by using the Server Manager command line.

Active Directory Domain Services command identifiers Command value Notes

Active Directory Domain Services

(No command)

After installing Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), you must run the dcpromo command to promote the server to a domain controller.

Removing the AD DS role while the computer is operating as a domain controller fails. You must first demote the domain controller to a standard domain member.

File Services command identifiers Command value Notes

File Services

(No command)

You cannot install or remove the File Services container by using the Server Manager command line. You can install or remove the File Services container only by using the Server Manager user interface. Note that for this reason, there is no command ID available to represent the File Services container.

Because you can configure File Services settings after installing the role, you are not required to specify File Services settings in the Server Manager command-line answer file.

Note that Services for Network File system is not part of the File Services role on computers running Windows Server 2008 for Itanium-based Systems; it is available as a role service of File Services only on the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows Server 2008.
