Hi,
we need to install the sql server (as part of alwayson setup) on win 2012 R2 vm. we want to automate this process so that manual install is avoided. please suggest best way for us.
I generally store the SQL iso file in a cloud storage drive. say https//mystore.com/sql/sql.iso
I want to mount ISO in a VM and install sql using config.ini file (for which I have powershell script). But it looks like, I need to download the ISO file to a local folder first before mount. what's the best way to download using script? bitstranfer method?
after installation how to check if the install is complete via powershell command. Or is it better to install using DSC? appreciate your answers.
also related to config.ini file, what feature I need to setup to install silently without any prompts!
thank you
