A silent installation is an installation procedure that continues without user interaction. It requires no user intervention from start to finish. This installation is performed using a user-modifiable response file, which enables you to easily duplicate the installation on many computer systems.

Prerequisites

Create a configuration file for the installer to execute the installation. To create configuration file:
  1. Copy the sample configuration file from the distribution (smartsui-installer.properties) to a directory on the server where you are installing smarts-ui.
  2. Use any editor (vi/vim) to modify this file.
  3. Define each of the properties in this file, according to the Table - Variables Property and Description. Save the changes to the file.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the server as root.
  2. Type bash smartsui-install.bin –f <response file location> -i silent, press Enter.
    Note: Any user interaction is not required for this installer. Once it completes, a message displays indicating that installation is completed, and you are returned to the shell prompt. If the installer is unable to complete the installation, an error message is saved in the [Product directory]/smarts-ui_logs.
