Run an Unattended Mode Installation

After completing the preparation steps, you can run an unattended mode installation.

To run an unattended mode installation

  1. From a system where the Web Agent Option Pack is already installed, copy the following files to a local directory on the system where you want to install the Option Pack.
  2. Open a console window and navigate to the location where you copied the files.
  3. Execute the following command:

    agent_executable -f properties_file -i silent

    Windows example:

    ca-wa-opack-12.0-sp2-win32.exe -f ca-wa-opack-installer.properties -i silent

    Solaris example:

    ./ca-wa-opack-12.0-sp2-sol.bin -f ca-wa-opack-installer.properties -i silent

    Note: These examples assume that you are running the installation from the directory containing the executable and properties files. If you are not running the installation from this directory, specify the full path to these files. If there are spaces in the directory path, enclose the entire path in quotation marks.

    A status box opens and shows the progress of the unattended installation. When the installation is complete, the command prompt is redisplayed.

  4. Determine that the installation completed successfully by viewing the log file CA_SiteMinder_Option_Pack_12.0-sp2_for_Web_Agent_ InstallLog.log. This file is located in the directory web_agent_opack_home/install_config_info.

Note: You can run an unattended mode installation that reinstalls the Web Agent Option Pack on the original system where it was installed in GUI or console mode.
