the Dell OpenManage Server Agent User's Guide.

The following information supplements the procedures provided in
the "User's Guide":

NOTE: Executing the unattended install program "setup.exe /s" is an
asynchronous operation like many Microsoft Windows applications. After you
have entered the "setup.exe /s" command, the task returns to the batch
stream or command line prompt while the unattended install continues to
execute in the background.

1. If you want to pause the batch stream until the unattended install
completes, type:

start /wait setup.exe /s

2. To activate the Dell OpenManage Server Agent after performing the
unattended installation, reboot the system.
