    To install openit_9_19_0_clims_server_x64.msi from C:\Installers in silent mode with all logging information stored in an output log file at C:\install.log, and using a preferred installation and data directories and default port number:

    When using the passive mode, wait until the process bar dialog disappears.

    When using the quiet mode, verify that the installation is complete by opening the Task Manager and checking in the Details tab if the msiexec process is still running.
