  6. To run the Studio Express installer, use setup.exe /s /v/qn /v"/l*v studioexp.log" followed by any or all of the following optional commands. Note that studio.log contains a log file of the installation steps.
    1. [Optional] /v"CHECK_KERBEROS_FILE=1" /v"KERBEROS_FILE_PATH=\"C:\tmp\\"" to use Kerberos authentication.
      The KERBEROS_FILE_PATH must point to the directory containing your krb5.ini file.
    2. [Optional] /v"WORKSPACEPATH=\"C:\studio\WORKSPACEPATH\"" to use a workspace file location other than the default.
      The workspace directory contains workspace files, including the SQL project folder and log file.
    3. [Optional] /v"CHECK_PRECONFIG_FILE=1" /v"CONFIGFILE_PATH=\"C:\Temp\config files\"" to use specify the directory location of a pre-configured connection, which might include both profiles and preferences.
      When the path contains spaces, double quotes are required around the pathname.
    4. [Optional] /v"ENABLE_AI_ASSISTANT=1" to install the AI Assistantbeta feature. By default, the AI Assistantbeta feature is not installed during a silent/command-line installation. Set ENABLE_AI_ASSISTANT=1 to include it, or omit this parameter (or set ENABLE_AI_ASSISTANT=0) to exclude it.
  7. [Optional] If connecting to systems using Kerberos Authentication you must run kinit to initialize your Kerberos credential before launching Teradata Studio.
