Before invoking the Telecom Web Services Server (TWSS)
services installer in silent mode, you need to customize the response
file that will be used to provide user responses to the installer.
Before you begin
Ensure that the following requirements are met:
- You have installed WebSphere® Application Server
Network Deployment (version 7.0.0.7 or 6.1.0.29) with a deployment manager and at least one managed node.
- You have federated all nodes into the deployment manager cell.
- You have created a WebSphere user account repository. It is recommended that an LDAP repository be federated with the TWSS base installer. See the WebSphere Application Server information center for details about performing these tasks.
- You have performed the database preparation steps described in the topic Preparing for the Telecom Web Services Server database.
- You have created clusters for the Telecom Web Services Server components you plan to install. Refer to the topic Creating the clusters for more information.
- You have completed the installation of TWSS base components. (See the Installing Telecom Web Services Server base components section of this information center.)
About this task
Use the response file to supply values to the TWSS services
installer. Running in silent mode, the installer does not display
interactive dialogs. Instead, it reads values from the response file.
To
modify the installation response file, you must copy
sample response file, twss_services_install.rsp,
from the CD.
Note: If
the installer fails before or while processing the parameter that
specifies the target directory, the log file will be in the system's
temporary directory.
To customize the response file in preparation
for a silent installation of the TWSS Web service implementations,
follow these steps.
- Locate the response file (twss_services_install.rsp)
on the installation CD: The sample response file is in
the response_files directory.
- Copy the response file to the application
server where you intend to install Telecom Web Services Server.
- Open the Telecom Web Services Server services
installer response file (twss_services_install.rsp)
in a text editor of your choice.
- Edit the response file properties.
For the silent install to complete successfully, you must
accept the license agreement by setting the parameter -G
LICENSE_ACCEPTED to true.
The
following table lists the response file parameters that have to be
configured to initially install all of the Telecom Web Services Server Web
services to the same target directory. Table 1. License acceptance

Results
Note: The Telecom Web Services Server services
uninstaller can also be run in silent mode. Copy and modify the parameters
in the sample response file, twss_services_uninstaller.rsp from
the CD, to indicate which features and components should be uninstalled.
What to do next
You are now ready to run the installation
script. The script will use the edited response file to get the settings
it needs.
