Will it cause any impact. We are not able to start this service from mmc. Please advise.
We are using server 2016 VM to host this service.

The NGT secures the internal traffic based on a computer based cert, that cert is generated at CD-ROM mount, obviously when you copy off the install files from the mounted CD-ROM you won’t be able to create a specific computer based certificate and the install will fail. There’s attention for that internally to see how we can fix this.

But if you unmount the tools cd before and then start the installation from another directory unfortunately it doesn’t work: “Error 0x80070643: Failed to install MSI package”.
Can you please try this also, I think there is a bug in the installer?!

So i try to do this with MS SCCM. But this Ends with Error 1603 “Fatal Error during Installation”. The Installation source is …\sccmcache\nn\sorce.
The same tried in user context (not SYSTEM), same result.
Mount the ISO Image and execute the same command with the CD as source, it works.
So this is not an unattended Installation, i think.

Is there a tip for scripted Installation without mounting CD?

Are you referring to the process of mounting the NGT to the VM through the CD drive? Or is there a place to actually download the .iso to my work computer?

Do you know where to download that?
