After Server.msi is installed, most of the other servers can be installed simply by running the .msi file from the command line with whichever MSIExec parameters you choose to apply. The one exception is the Archiving Server installation file (ArchService.msi), which has one parameter: LOGSRVQ. This parameter receives the name of the message queue that will be used by the Archiving Server. If you specify a message queue that does not exist, it will be created. You need to specify this parameter only if you specify the /qr, /qb, or /qnparameter with MSIExec; otherwise you'll be prompted for this information.

Installation Prerequisites

Most of the servers have prerequisites that must be installed first. The two primary prerequisites are OCSCore.msi (Office Communications Server Core Components) and UcmaRedist.msi (Unified Communications Managed API 2.0 Redistributable). These components must be installed before any of the server roles. Here are the prerequisites for these installation files.
