HOW TO
When doing a typical installation, per machine or per user, ArcGIS Pro starts with a Named User licensing type. The user can then log in with an ArcGIS Online account that has been assigned Pro licenses. There is also the option to switch to other licensing types, Single Use or Concurrent Use. If selecting the Concurrent Use option, the user must provide a License Manager and select a core product license along with any available extension licenses.
Alternatively, ArcGIS Pro can be preconfigured to start with any desired licensing type through the use of silent installs, which provides command line examples on how to install each licensing type. For the purpose of this documentation, we will focus on the silent installation of Pro for Concurrent Use licensing. Whether you choose to install a per machine or a per user option, you must specify the license manager, ESRI_LICENSE_HOST, the license level, SOFTWARE_CLASS and license type, AUTHORIZATION_TYPE. Currently there is no option to pre-select the extension licenses. Due to technical and other limitations, we decided not to fix the issue. Instead, we recommend the following workaround.
Run a silent installation of ArcGIS Pro for the Concurrent Use Licensing type. Once completed, manually or automate the import of the Extensions Registry hive.
msiexec.exe /i <Path to msi> /qb ALLUSERS=1 ACCEPTEULA=YES ESRI_LICENSE_HOST=<yourlicenseserver> SOFTWARE_CLASS=Professional AUTHORIZATION_TYPE=CONCURRENT_USE
Note: All licensing registry keys are created in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ESRI\ArcGISPro\Licensing hive.
msiexec.exe /i /qb ALLUSERS=1 ACCEPTEULA=YES ESRI_LICENSE_HOST= SOFTWARE_CLASS=Professional AUTHORIZATION_TYPE=CONCURRENT_USE LOCK_AUTH_SETTINGS=FALSE
