Install silently from the command line.
Before you begin
- You must create
the response file before you start.
- For Windows installations,
the user that is installing the product must have administrator privileges.
- For Linux or UNIX installations, the user that is installing
the product must have root or sudo root authority.
Procedure
To install in silent mode:
- On a command line, change to the directory that contains
the .exe or .bin file that launches the installation wizard on your
system.
- Enter the following command, using the -i silent
-f options to install silently:
installer_name -i silent -f response_file
where
installer_name is
the name of the installation name for your operating system and
response_file is
the name of the file in which the installation procedure is recorded.
If you did not specify a file name, the default is
installer.properties.
For example, run the following command on a Windows machine:
IBM_OPQRT_V3_1_1_Windows -i silent -f installer.properties
- When the installation completes, the installation
creates log files in the installation directory. You can
use these files to examine the results of the silent installation.
In the installation directory, open the following files:
- If you installed Version 3.1.1, view the following log files:
- OPQRTinstall_details_timestamp.log
- OPQRTinstall_summary_timestamp.log
- PQactivation_details_timestamp.log
- PQactivation_summary_timestamp.log
- If you installed pureQuery Runtime Version 3.1.1 with InfoSphere® Optim™ Performance Manager and ran
the configuration tool, view the following additional log files:
- PQconfiguration_details_timestamp.log
- PQconfiguration_summary_timestamp.log
The timestamp is the date and time of the
installation.
