Installing Veeam Recovery Orchestrator in Unattended Mode

You can install Orchestrator in the unattended mode using the command line interface. The unattended installation mode does not require user interaction — the installation runs automatically in the background, and you do not have to respond to the installation wizard prompts. You can use the unattended installation mode to automate the Orchestrator installation process in large-scale environments.

In unattended mode, Orchestrator components must be installed in the following order:

1. Veeam Orchestrator Server Service
2. Veeam Orchestrator Web UI

Before You Begin

Before you start unattended installation, perform the following steps:

1. [For Veeam Orchestrator Server Service] Pre-install the following components on the target machine:

1. .NET Framework 4.7.2 (or later)
