Hi Guys,
This is most likely a really quick question but, is it possible to install MSSQL Server Express in unattended (silent) mode on Linux? In particular we are using CentOS 7.
I have tried googling (typical tech solution) but couldn't find anything useful.
I have tried the following command to see if there is anything /opt/mssql/bin/mssql-server setup --help
Configuration options:-T<#> Enable a traceflag
-y<#> Enable dump when server encounters specified error
-k<#> Checkpoint speed (in MB/sec)
Administrative options:
--accept-eula Accept the SQL Server EULA
--pid <pid> Set server product key
--reset-sa-password Reset system administrator password. Password should
be specified in the MSSQL_SA_PASSWORD environment
variable.
-f Minimal configuration mode
-m Single user administration mode
-K Force regeneration of Service Master Key
--setup Set basic configuration settings and then shutdown.
--force-setup Same as --setup, but also reinitialize master and model databases.
General options:
-v Show program version
--help Display this help information
Unfortunately, there is nothing to set the SQL Server version and the PID requires and Product Key which express doesn't have anymore.
Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.
