Installing and configuring EasyTransfer via command line

You can install EasyTransfer via a command line by providing it with configuration settings. You can then proceed with silent installations, prevent updates, or set up a proxy, as required.

List of general settings

Setting name

Description

If NeverUpdate=true, EasyTransfer will not update even if you have enabled the update on the supervision console

Important

During initial installation, if the application doesn’t automatically connect to the network (e.g.: connectivity diagnostics failed, transfers not possible), you might need to set up a specific proxy in accordance with your administration system.
