Configuring the agent by using the silent response file

When you install the Microsoft Lync Server agent, the agent is automatically configured and started with default values in the configuration panel.
The silent response file contains the agent configuration parameters with default values defined for some parameters. You can edit the silent response file to specify different values for the configuration parameters.

Before you begin

If you want to modify the default configuration parameters, edit the response file.

About this task

You can configure the agent when the agent is running or stopped. The agent remains in the same state after configuration. For example, if the agent is running, it remains in the running state after configuration.

Procedure

To configure the Microsoft Lync Server agent, complete the following steps:

  1. Open the command prompt.
  2. Change the path to the directory that contains the microsoft_lync_server-agent.bat file.
  3. Enter the microsoft_lync_server-agent.bat config absolute path to the response file command.

    For information about the configuration parameters, see Configuration parameters for the agent.

  4. Start the agent if it is in the stopped state.
