Silent Install

To perform a silent install

1. Configure the installer.properties response file.
2. Open the installer.properties response file.

   This file is available on the product CD or CA Support Online website at http://support.ca.com.

3. Edit the properties.

   Note: For more information about silent installer properties, see the CA Workload Automation Agent for UNIX, Linux, or Windows Implementation Guide.

4. Remove the pound sign (#) to uncomment each property line.
5. Evaluate which options you want to activate, such as FTP, SNMP, and JMX.

   These options depend on the application jobs that are routed to these agents.

6. CA WA CA 7 Edition supports only the AES Encryption algorithms. Verify that you code STRONG_ENCRYPTION_CIPHER as AES.
7. Change the STRONG_ENCRYPTION_KEYGEN so that it contains 32 or 64 characters.
8. Save the file.
9. Run the silent installer from a command prompt in the operating environment where you are installing the CA WA Agent:

   On UNIX:

   ./setup.bin -f response file
   

   On Windows:

   setup.exe -f response file
   

   response file is the fully qualified path name where the responses (installer.properties) are located.

10. Examine the following file located in the agent installation directory for any errors:
