Currently, there are the following three installation types only.
- Management Node
- Compute Node
- Client
- Symphony DE
But it's better to have new installation type "Management Console" or "Management Client".
It contains ego/soam commands, but it doesn't contain any server daemons.
It seems as the following.
1. Management Node minus daemons
2. Client plus ego/soam commands
3. Symphony DE minus SDK and daemons

.There is no plan to create a "management console/client" package. This request can be done by client by customizing the installation.
This RFE's Headline was changed after submission to reflect the headline of an internal request we were already considering, but will now track here.
Creating a new RFE based on Community RFE #56206 in product Platform Symphony.
I think this is a good idea. I have had similar requests from developers in my company who don't want to install DE on their computers. I do have a workaround using a copy of the w2k3_x64-vc7-psdk\bin folder on my san and a copy of ego.conf with the settings for my cluster. This is adequate but is not as elegant as a proper management client.
This is an example of the PowerShell script:
$binarySource = "path\to\binary\zip\files"
$profileSource = "path\to\app\profile\xml"
$symConf = "\\san\Symphony\5.2\conf-prod"
$symAppbin = "\\san\Symphony\5.2\w2k3_x64-vc7-psdk\bin"
$env:EGO_CONFDIR = $symConf
"Uploading Symphony Applications..."
cd "$symAppbin"
soamdeploy add MyApp1 -f -p "$binarySource\MyApp1.zip" -c "/MyConsumerRoot/MyConsumerA/MyApp1" -u my_admin_user -x my_admin_password
soamdeploy add MyApp2 -f -p "$binarySource\MyApp2.zip" -c "/MyConsumerRoot/MyConsumerA/MyApp2" -u my_admin_user -x my_admin_password
"Uploading Symphony Applications... Done"
""
"Registering Symphony Applications..."
soamreg "$profileSource\MyApp1AppProfile.xml" -f -u my_admin_user -x my_admin_password
soamreg "$profileSource\MyApp2AppProfile.xml" -f -u my_admin_user -x my_admin_password
"Registering Symphony Applications... Done"
