Why aren't my command line flags working when installing an UF via Power Shell on Windows?

Hi, I'm testing an install of Splunk UF on a Windows server using the Power Shell command line. The server is supposed to be used as a golden image for provisioning, so I have to prepare the UF for cloning. The Power Shell command I'm using is the following. msiexec.exe /i .\splunkforwarder-7.0.1--x64-release.msi AGREETOLICENSE=Yes DEPLOYMENT_SERVER="" LAUNCHSPLUNK=0 CLONEPREP=1 SERVICESTARTTYPE=manual SPLUNKPASSWORD= /quiet My problem is that some of the flags doesn't seem to have any affect at all. The flags AGREETOLICENSE, DEPLOYMENT_SERVER, and LAUNCHSPLUNK all works fine, but the flags CLONEPREP and SERVICESTARTTYPE does nothing. The UF service is still sat to "automatic", and the servername of the host I'm installing on is still written to server.conf and inputs.conf. I get no output on the terminal indicating that something is wrong. Also, I've asked the Splunk Documentation Team about the CLONEPREP flag, and they confirms that the flag should work with resent versions of the software. Does anyone have any idea on why the flags arent working, or how to troubleshoot this issue?
