Run an Unattended Installation on UNIX

You should have completed an initial Web Agent installation and, if necessary, modified the ca-wa-installer.properties file. Now, you can use the file to run subsequent Web Agent installations.

To run an unattended Web Agent installation

1. From a system where the Web Agent is already installed, copy the following files to a local directory:
   1. ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin (Agent executable) from where it resides on your system.
   2. Copy the ca-wa-installer.properties file from web_agent_home/install_config_info.
2. Open a console window and navigate to the directory where you copied the two files.
3. Run the installation executable with the -f and - i silent options, as follows:

   agent_binary -f properties_file -i silent

   Note: If you are not at the directory where these files reside, you must specify the full path to each file.

   Assuming that you run the installation from the directory where the executable and properties file are located, the command would be:

   ./ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin -f ca-wa-installer.properties
   -i silent

   When the installation is complete, you return to the command prompt.

4. CA_SiteMinder_Web_Agent _version_InstallLog.log file, located in the web_agent_home/install_config_info directory. This log file contains the results of the installation.
5. Register the trusted host and configure the Web Agent.
