DESCRIPTION:
Following is a powershell script to automate the installation of AEM Author/Publish environments along with NAS storage and installation of necessary packages through a single script and deploy AEM as windows service with LogOn details.
The script is run locally on a VM where AEM environment is to be created. The script is broken into several sections, which are explained in detail.
SCRIPT:
Following are the parameters used
$ErrorActionPreference = "Stop"
$WarningPreference = "SilentlyContinue"
$AEMINST = Read-Host "Choose Author/Publish Instance to Setup [Author/Publish]"
$AEMPORT = Read-Host "Enter the CQ Port [4502/4503]"

$repository = "$BASEPATHcrx-quickstartrepository"
Description of each and every parameter is as following
.PARAMETER AEMINST Author or Publish Environment .PARAMETER AEMPORT Author/Publish Port [4502/4503] .PARAMETER SRCPATH Common location for installation files. Example: AEM jar file, packages etc. .PARAMETER BASEPATH AEM installation directory .PARAMETER SERVICEPATH AEM instsrv.bat file location .PARAMETER JARFILE AEM jar file [aem-author-p4502.jar] .PARAMETER LicensePath license.properties file location .PARAMETER AEMUNPACK command to unpack AEM .PARAMETER ServiceName AEM service name .PARAMETER USERNAME username for AEM service LogOn .PARAMETER MPass password for serive LogOn .PARAMETER HOSTNAME Host on which AEM is installed .PARAMETER CQ_PORT AEM port .PARAMETER CQ_USER AEM login username .PARAMETER CQ_PASS AEM login password .PARAMETER CURLEXE cURL executable location .PARAMETER GCURL CRXDE url .PARAMETER DOCUNSTORECFG Document Node Store configuration .PARAMETER FILEDSTORECFG File Data Store configuration .PARAMETER PKGPATH## AEM package location and name .PARAMETER repository Location of Datastore repository .NOTES Author: Shashi Yebbare Organization: Skydevops Pvt. Ltd. Version: 3.5.2
