<NOTE: Make sure and open the command prompt with "Run as Administrator".>
msiexec /i "IBM i2 Analyst's Notebook Premium 9.msi"
Ensure that all Analyst's Notebook prerequisites are installed before you run this command, or the installation might fail.

When you install Analyst's Notebook Premium from the command line, only Analyst's Notebook and the common files are installed by default, but you can add features by specifying their names. The following table outlines the main features in the installer and their default installation levels:

| Feature Name | Default Installation Level | Description |
| i2Common | 1 | Common files (always required) |
| i2ANBP | 1 | Analyst's Notebook (required by all features except Schema Designer) |
| EsriMaps | 250 | i2 Esri Maps |
| i2Opal | 300 | Connector to i2 Analyze that uses the Opal Services |

msiexec /i "IBM i2 Analyst's Notebook Premium 9.msi" ADDLOCAL=<feature name>,<feature name>,<feature name>
