Command Line Usage
To view command line options available, run the setup ‐ <release>.exe /? command
to extract files using the Solarflare Setup Bootstrapper. When this has completed
the Solarflare Driver Package Setup Window will be displayed.
Figure 16: Command Line Install.
Installing from the Windows command line allows scripted, silent and unattended
installation of the core Solarflare drivers and package utilities. The drivers install
package is named after the Solarflare document part number e.g.
SF ‐ 107785 ‐ LS ‐ 2_Solarflare_Windows_x64_64 ‐ bit_Driver_Package.exe
This can be renamed e.g setup.exe before invoking from the command line.
The following example will install default package options silently with no message
output:
setup.exe /Quiet /Install
Table 32 lists other command line examples. Note that command line options are
case insensitive, so
/install
and
/INSTALL
are the same.
Table 32: Solarflare Installation Options

and install the package to a network
share and to specify which features of

to
the specified path.
