I'm not a msi specialist, but i guess conditions can be passed from cmd

Viewer is installed if condition VIEWER=1 ( msi src)
Server is installed if condition SERVER=1 ( msi src)

msiexec /i MyApp.msi VIEWER=0 or VIEWER="0"

GPO use a MST file to specify the msi options.

To achieve only server installation with Orca.

table: Component
In column "Condition" element "VIEWER=1" set to "VIEWER=0". Worked for me.

P.S. sorry for lame English.
