Performing a Non-interactive BFC Installation

The BFC Installation program enables you to perform a non-interactive installation as needed. The non-interactive installation enables you to specify the installation values in a configuration file so that the installation program does not prompt you for input.

The following is a template for the input file and it includes instructions for editing the template.
