Installing JMP 17 Via powershell to include license

Hoping someone can help, I am trying to find a script that will install JMP 17 via network drive and also install the SID file and set the per file to a default location.

Re: Installing JMP 17 Via powershell to include license

Hi @PoynomialMink80 , you could do this:

  • Reference this link to build a silent installation of JMP with your preferred preferences
  • In your script, copy the installation media to a local drive
  • Run the JMP install, you could include the license in the install and skip the next step but I find the next step makes it easier to renew the license in the future
  • Copy the license file to the machine and create a preferences file that references a specific license file location
#Load the License File
$LicenseFile = $InstallDir+"\jmp.per"
Copy-Item $SourceDir"\jmp.per" $LicenseFile -Force

# Create directories if needed
New-Item -Path $Env:ALLUSERSPROFILE"/SAS" -ItemType Directory -Force
New-Item -Path $Env:ALLUSERSPROFILE"/SAS/JMPPRO" -ItemType Directory -Force
New-Item -Path $Env:ALLUSERSPROFILE"/SAS/JMPPRO/17" -ItemType Directory -Force
$AddinDir = $Env:ALLUSERSPROFILE+"/SAS/JMPPRO/addins"
New-Item -Path $AddinDir -ItemType Directory -Force

# Create preferences file that links to the license file
$fn = $Env:ALLUSERSPROFILE+"/SAS/JMPPRO/17/JMP.PFS"
New-Item -Force $fn
Set-Content $fn "Preferences(
	File Location Settings(
		License File Path( $LicenseFile )
	)
);"

Anyone manage add-ins using a script or a centralized tool? Maybe a PowerShell script via Microsoft ...

Re: Installing JMP 17 Via powershell to include license

This scirpt is awesome! I'm deploying via intune / powershell and its exactly what I was looking for. One question, how are you updating yearly? Do you just need to delivery a new .per file to the machine and overwrite the old one? JMP's docs indicate a user-interactive procedure vs an ideal silent update. 

My thinking is use intune to deliver a new per file and overwrite the old one, which is easy enough, but will JMP notice the new per file? I mean we can tell the users "yeah new per file's already there, just click it and go about your day" but that's less ideal
