command prompt:
Setup.exe –s x
To modify an existing installation, first uninstall it, and then reinstall it with the desired features.
Silent Repair/Modify
Silent repair is the same as running silent install on a current installation. Enter the following at the
command prompt:
setup.exe -s r
Multi Version Installation and Management
Beginning with IxOS 5.10 SP2, multi-version support is present in the Ixia operating system. Multiple
versions of IxOS can be present on the client computer, as well as multiple versions of applications
such as IxLoad or IxNetwork. You can select from the different versions of IxOS to maintain
compatibility with the application that you are running.
Benefits
The benefits of multi-version installation are as follows:
l
You can incorporate multiple versions of IxOS on a testbed.
l
If you need to downgrade, you no longer have to uninstall/reinstall; you can simply start the
other version of IxOS.
l
The Licensing model still remains the same.
l
This new model also extends into applications. So multiple application versions can co-exist in
the future.
Caveats
l
Only a single version of IxServer can be running at any one time.
l
IxOS 8.00 does not co-exist with older versions of IxOS. The older versions need to be
uninstalled before upgrading.
l
Client computer/chassis version matching does not change. So a Client computer with IxOS 5.10
SP3 still abides by the same restrictions if attempting to connect to a chassis running IxOS 5.10
SP2.
