Abbreviations for SQL Server Components when Installing with PowerShell

SQL Server Component Install Options

I have (finally) been introduced to installing SQL Server with PowerShell and it has made those installations much easier.  Each of my installs; however, may require different SQL Server components so one of the items in my configuration file I change is the Features= section of the INI file.  To help keep all this information in one place, here is a list of items you can choose to install.  Remember, most of these will require other parameters to be set–this is only for the Features= section.  Each feature should be separated by a comma.

This list specifies the items you can choose to install.

Database engine = SQLENGINE
Replication = REPLICATION
Full-text and semantic extractions for search = FULLTEXT
Data quality services = DQ
Analysis services = AS
Reporting services – native = RS
Reporting services – sharepoint = RS_SHP
Reporting services add-in for sharepoint products = RS_SHPWFE
Data quality client = DQC
SQL Server data tools = BIDS
Client tools connectivity = CONN
Integration services = IS
Client tools backwards compatibility = BC
Client tools SDK = SDK
Documentation components = BOL
Management tools – basic = SSMS
Management tools – advanced = ADV_SSMS
Distributed replay controller = DREPLAY_CTLR
Distributed replay client = DREPLAY_CLT
SQL client connectivity SDK = SNAC_SDK
Master data services = MDS

Happy installing. 🙂
