Non-interactive installation of IBM MQ server on Solaris
Before you begin
About this task
You can perform a silent installation of IBM MQ. A sample script file called silent.sh
is supplied in the silent
directory on the DVD. You can use this script to perform a non-interactive installation that requires no input and shows nothing on the screen. It must be run as root.
The installation script silent.sh
uses an admin
file and a response
file, both of which are supplied in the silent
directory. You can use these files as supplied to perform a silent installation of all the components, including all the national language features, to the default location.
Procedure
What to do next
- If you have chosen this installation to be the primary installation on the system, you must now set it as the primary installation. Enter the following command at the command prompt:
MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH
/bin/setmqinst -i -pMQ_INSTALLATION_PATH
where
MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH
represents the directory where IBM MQ is installed.You can have only one primary installation on a system. If there is already a primary installation on the system, you must unset it before you can set another installation as the primary installation. For more information, see Changing the primary installation.
- You might want to set up the environment to work with this installation. You can use the setmqenv or crtmqenv command to set various environment variables for a particular installation of IBM MQ . For more information, see setmqenv and crtmqenv.
- If you want to confirm that the installation was successful, you can verify your installation. See Verifying a server installation, for more information.
