| Wizard mode
| Run Installation Manager from a graphical user interface.
|
| Command-line
| When we cannot use the GUI we can use the command line utility (imcl). We can use imcl commands with either the installed version of Installation Manager or the Installation Manager installer.
|
| Silent mode
| Silent installations are defined by a response file and started from the command line or a batch file.
|
| Console mode
| Use when we do not have a graphics display device available. Installation Manager supports installing in an ASCII text-based mode called console mode. Console mode is an interactive text-based user interface to Installation Manager. For example, use console mode for server-side deployments when no graphical user interface is present, or for running the installation from a remote host.
|
| Web browser
| Useful in environments that do not support a graphics environment or do not have graphics libraries that are compatible with the Installation Manager installation. We use a web browser, which communicates with the Installation Manager web server.
