How to Run an Unattended Report Server Install

To run an unattended Administrative UI install, complete the following procedures:

1. Review the installation checklists.
2. Gather the required information for the installer.
3. Review the guidelines for silent installation.
4. Locate the Report Server response file and CA SiteMinder® Report Server Configuration Wizard properties file.
5. Copy the response and properties files to a temporary location on the Report Server host system.
6. Copy the Report Server and the CA SiteMinder® Report Server Configuration Wizard installation media to a temporary location on the Report Server host system.

   Note: You can download the installation media from the Technical Support site.

7. Modify the Report Server response file.
8. Modify the CA SiteMinder® Report Server Configuration Wizard properties file.
9. Run the Report Server installer.
10. Run the CA SiteMinder® Report Server Configuration Wizard.
11. Register the Report Server.

Modify the Report Server Response File for Windows

You modify the installer response file to define installation variables. The default values reflect the information that was entered when a Report Server was installed and a response file was saved.

Important! Consider the following items before you modify the file:

• Some of the parameters identify the type of database that is to function as the report (cms) database. Do not use the properties file to change the type of database that the installer is to configure. To change the report database type, use the installer to create another properties file.
• Passing a parameter in the command line overrides the respective setting in the response file.
• The installer generates some parameters automatically. Do not modify the following parameters:
  • DATABASECONNECT
  • DATACONNECTION
  • DATABASE_AUDIT_CONNSVR

Run the Report Server Installer

You run an unattended installation to install the Report Server without user interaction.

Before You Install

Consider the following items before installing the Report Server:

• You install the Report Server using the installation media on the Technical Support site.

  Note: For a list of installation media names, see the Policy Server Release Notes.

• The Report Server is compiled as 32–bit native binary and is designed to use 32–bit data source middleware connectivity. If you are installing to a Windows 64–bit operating system, be sure to create the DSN using odbcad32.exe. This executable is located in the following location:

  install_home\Windows\SysWOW64.

  install_home

  Specifies the installation path of the Windows operating system.

• The Report Server installation includes the following components that run as processes:
  • The Content Management Server
  • The Server Intelligence Agent

  These components require TCP/IP ports to communicate. The installer lets you modify the default settings to prevent port conflicts on the Report Server host system.

• Important! The installation zip contains multiple folders. The Report Server installer requires this folder structure. If you moved the Reports Server installer after extracting the zip, copy the entire folder structure to the same location. Be sure that you execute the installation media from the folder structure.
