Syntax for upgrading Windows-based Universal Forwarders through WSUS?

Have any of you upgraded Windows-based Universal Forwarders using WSUS? If so, what kind of syntax did you use when deploying it? I've tried this once in the past and don't believe it was totally successful:

msiexec.exe /i <file path><file name>.msi AGREETOLICENSE=Yes DEPLOYMENT_SERVER=<our_deployment_server>:8089 /quiet

Is there anything wrong in this syntax, or anything that I may have missed that should be corrected for next time?
