Here are the install notes for the Epoch server and there is an app called TADST that can be used to initiate the server instance and the appropriate mods.

A3 EPOCH Server Install Guide


Prerequisites:


Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013:
Download Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 from Official Microsoft Download Center


== INSTALL ==


1. Remove any previous @Epoch folders and Install A3 Epoch client files (@Epoch) into Arma3 root directory.
2. Remove any previous @EpochHive folder and copy all server files from zip into Arma3 root directory.
3. Open "DB" folder and start redis-server.exe with the parameter "redis.conf" or use start-redis.cmd. (Only one redis instance is needed per box, All servers connecting to the same redis will share character data by default.)
4. Open @EpochHive folder and edit EpochServer.ini BattlEyePath to match your server path to Battleye.
5. If running multiple servers on the same box, open "@EpochHive" folder and edit the "EpochServer.ini" setting "InstanceID" to a unique string for each A3 Epoch server.
6. Open "SC" folder and edit the config.cfg server name, password, etc.
7. Open the SC/Battleye folder and rename example-BEServer.cfg to BEServer.cfg and change the RConPassword.
7. Look at the "start-A3-cmd-line-example.txt" file for an example command line for starting your server.


== NOTES ==


* As of 0.2.5 you must use BEC (Battleye Extended Controls) with watchdog plugin (included in BEC folder) if you are using our built-in Anti-Hack and Admin Panel.
* You should use a service restarter (like firedaemon) to keep the redis server and Arma 3 server running.
* A3 Server should be restarted every 4 hours. A good option ssing BEC Battleye Extended Controls scheduler and the #shutdown rcon command works well. (Scheduler Example: https://gist.github.com/vbawol/38b2f57d89c2c36106b3)
* The log rotator found in tools should only need one path to Arma 3 changed and should be ran just before the Arma 3 server starts. (firedeamon Pre/post service: Before Event)
* It is recommended that you use ASM https://github.com/fred41/ASM to monitor your server performance.
* Go to http://epochmod.com/forum/ for more help if needed.
