Clean install

Considerations when installing IBM® Lotus® Notes® on a system on which a Notes installation does not currently exist:

• If the "SELECTINSTALLFEATURES" property is specified on the command line, use that property to determine which installfeatures (in the install.xml file) should be installed.
• If "SELECTINSTALLFEATURES" is not specified on command line, use the "default" setting of each installfeature (in the install manifest) to determine if a feature should be installed.

  In this situation, the only installfeatures that will be installed if "default" is set to "true" are those where the "show" attribute is also set to "true" -- these are the installfeatures that would have appeared in the Notes feature installation panel.

Considerations when installing Notes on a system in which an upgradable version of Notes currently exists:

• If the "SELECTINSTALLFEATURES" property is specified on the command line, use that property to determine which installfeatures should be installed or upgraded. If an installfeature is already installed and is not specified in "SELECTINSTALLFEATURES", remove the feature.
• If "SELECTINSTALLFEATURES" is not specified on the command line, installfeatures that are already installed and are not specified on the command line will be uninstalled.
