Installing CA XCOM Data Transport for Oracle Solaris x86 64 › Unattended Install

Unattended Install

To do an unattended installation, first build a response file which can be tailored to your installation. Configure one response file and use it on many systems. You need separate response files only if you want different options for the install on some machines. Once the response files have been created, you can run an unattended InstallAnywhere installation using the sh XCOM.bin command.

Follow these steps:

1. To create a response file, change to the directory where the XCOM.bin file is located and issue the following command:

   sh XCOM.bin -r <response file path and name>
   

   Example:

   sh XCOM.bin -r /tmp/XCOM.properties
   

   Follow the on-screen instructions in the InstallAnywhere wizard, until you reach the Preinstallation Summary page, and then do one of the following functions:

   • In a GUI mode installation, click Cancel.
   • In a console mode installation, type quit.

   Note: If you do not specify the response file name with a path, the default response file is created with the name installer.properties. The file is located in the same directory as the XCOM.bin file.

2. Use the following command to run an installation in silent mode.

   Note: See the section on How to Specify Unique System ID and System Name Values before issuing the following command.

   sh XCOM.bin -i silent -f <response file path and name>
   

   Example:

   sh XCOM.bin -i silent -f /tmp/XCOM.properties
