One of the cases I had recently was about installing Maya 2010 on a renderfarm. If you have a large number or installations, going via the GUI might not be too efficient. There have been some licensing changes between Maya 2009 and 2010 so some additional flags MUST be used when using msiexec:
NOTE: This command would be on 1 line!
msiexec.exe -i Maya2010.msi
ADLMSERIALNUMBER=<XXX-XXXXXXXX>
ADLM_PRODKEY=<xxxxx>
ADLMPRODUCTKEY=<xxxxx>
ADLMLICENSETYPE=3
ADLMSERVERNAME=YOUR_SERVER_NAME
Finally, if you have made a mistake on the ADLMSERVERNAME, you can manually edit the C:\flexlm\maya.lic or /var/flexlm/maya.lic to the correct server name after the installation.
Thanks to David Lau for his tip
