Installing KCM Control Center

This section describes steps that you must take to install KCM Control Center as a separate component.

You can find the AddControlCenter.exe installation tool in the <deploy root>\KCM\Programs\<version>\Management folder.

How the tool works

AddControlCenter.exe works as follows:

It checks the requirements needed for KCM Control Center installation.

If the check fails, the installation quits.
It installs KCM Control Center, but doesn't start it yet.

To install KCM Control Center, you must execute the following steps:

Open the command line interface (CLI). It could be PowerShell or Command Prompt.
In the CLI, navigate to the <deploy root>\KCM\Programs\<version>\Management folder.
Call the AddControlCenter.exe file and provide the necessary parameters. The order of parameters is irrelevant. See an example of the call below:
```
AddControlCenter.exe Services!Password=testpassword
```
To simplify input, you can create a script with the required parameter values and then use it to run AddControlCenter.exe.

If everything is correct, the installation will run without errors. You will be able to follow the installation process by reading the CLI output.

If the installation fails, then the unfinished deployment must be removed manually by running the RemoveControlCenter.exe tool described in the KCM Control Center section of this guide.
