Invoking the graphical installer from the command line v16
The command line options of the EDB Postgres Advanced Server installer offer functionality for Windows systems that reside in situations where a graphical installation might not work because of limited resources or privileges. You can:
- Include the
--mode unattended
option when invoking the installer to perform an installation without user input. - Invoke the installer with the
--extract-only
option to perform a minimal installation when you don’t hold the privileges required to perform a complete installation.
Not all command line options are suitable for all situations. For a complete reference guide to the command line options, see Reference - Command Line Options.
Note
If you're invoking the installer from the command line to perform a system upgrade, the installer ignores command line options and preserves the configuration of the previous installation.
