Silent installation
IBM® Installation Manager can generate a properties file when you are running the interactive installation program. To run silent installations, you can edit this file or create your own file.
Sample silent mode response files are provided in the STARTUP_INSTALL_HOME/StartupKit directory.
Operating system-specific files are available for supported systems.
The following sample silent mode response files for IBM WebSphere® Application Server are available:
- standalone_install_server.res – use this response file to install the MDM operational server, MDM database, IBM DB2® database server, and WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment
- standalone_install_workstation.res – use this response file to install the MDM operational server, MDM database, IBM DB2 database server, WebSphere Application Server, IBM Rational® Application Developer (RAD), and InfoSphere® MDM Workbench
- install_single_servers_aix.res – use
this response file to install the operational server with a custom
installation deployment type that uses the following parameters:
