Adding Terminal Services using ocsetup.exe

[Guest Lars Wurm]

Hi,

 

I am aware that servermanagercmd.exe is the CLI for adding components into

the GUI version of 2008. However, since ocsetup.exe is working on both GUI

and core version I want to make a generic script (which is in place) for

adding components on both platforms. When adding a component into the GUI

version, I can from taskmgr.exe see that an instance of ocsetup.exe is kicked

off... my problem is that I dont seem to find the OC name for terminal

services within 2008, that maps to the ocsetup.exe tool, or from the WAIK

tools which often give u a hint what the name is if u wanna add it using

ocsetup.exe. Has anyone come across the name for Terminal Services components

that maps to the ocsetup.exe CLI? Adding all other components work, so I

guesss this one will also, as long as I get hold of the OC name.

I would suggest using ServerManagerCmd.

 

For example:

 

 

 

ServerManagercmd.exe -install TS-Terminal-Server -resultPath

installResult.xml -restart

 

Echo %ERRORLEVEL%

 

 

 

installResult.xml is the log file, which comes in handy for investigating

issues

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

 

Soo Kuan

As I wrote, I know how ServerManagerCMD works, I wanna know if the same

component can be handled from OCSetup.exe (which should be fine, given one

knows the name of the component used from OCList/OCSetup)? So, has anyone

come across the name of the TS components that maps to ocsetup.exe?

Servermanager/Servermanagercmd are the only supported tools for

adding/removing server roles/ role services. If you're using other

unsupported methods, you'll run into the risk of compatibility issues in

future windows.
