Before you perform an operation such as installing service or uninstalling, refer to the instructions specific to the task that you are performing in addition to this topic.
For uninstallation you are advised to use the Sample response files supplied with WebSphere Message Broker.
Commands in this topic show the use of response files when installing service, however, this information is equally applicable to uninstalling the product. To use response files when uninstalling, substitute uninstaller for installer where it occurs in the example commands. In the example commands, uninstaller and installer denote where the specific names of the uninstall or installation wizards should be entered. For the names of the uninstall and installation wizards, and full details of these tasks, see the Installation Guide, Applying service to runtime components, and Uninstalling.
Sample response files are supplied with WebSphere Message Broker. Use these response files when uninstalling the product. The sample response file includes detailed information about the options that you can change, and the values you must enter to change them. You can tailor this file to your requirements. The sample response files are located in the sample_scripts directory of root CD directory.
installer -options-template responsefilewhere responsefile is the full path and name of your chosen response file. On Windows, surround the path and name with double quotes if it contains spaces.
The generated template response file contains full instructions on how to edit it to specify your required options. Installation is not performed.
You can edit the file to change the options to define the operation that you want to be performed.
If you are uninstalling, create the response file in another directory to ensure that it is not deleted as part of the uninstallation.
A problem with InstallShield causes generated response files to contain incorrect options. If you select one or more specific components to be uninstalled (rather than the full product), the option is ignored and the full product is uninstalled. To overcome this problem, complete the following steps.
-P feature.active=truewhere feature is the name of the component that you want to be uninstalled.
-P feature.activeForUninstall=true
-P feature.active=falsewhere feature is the name of the component that you do not want to uninstall.
-P feature.activeForUninstall=false
installer -options-record responsefilewhere responsefile is the full path and name of your chosen response file. On Windows, surround the path and name with double quotes if it contains spaces. Create this file in a directory different to the one in which the product is installed.
The installation wizard starts in graphical mode, and requires your input as it progresses. Your responses are recorded during installation. When installation is complete, the response file contains all the choices you have made during installation.
installer -options-record responsefile -console
installer -options responsefile -silentwhere responsefile is the full path and name of your chosen response file. On Windows, surround the path and name with double quotes if it contains spaces.
The program runs without interaction according to the options selected when you recorded the response file.
