responsefile.nd.txt

 

Installing WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment using silent installation refers to using a file to supply installation options without user interaction. To configure the installation, change the options in the response file before you issue the installation command. Silent installation mode does not accept interactive installation options. To specify non-default options during a silent installation, use the response file. To install silently, accept the license agreement in the agreement option.

Verify that the required disk space is available.

See iSeries prerequisites for more information.

Do not use the default response file that is shipped on the product disk to install the product because the value of the silentInstallLicenseAcceptance option is false. Copy the file to change the value to true.

 

Location of the response file

The sample options response file is named responsefile.nd.txt.

The file is in the WAS directory on the product disc, the customized installation package (CIP), or the downloaded installation image.

 

Creating an operational environment

Installing the product with the response file creates an operational environment by default. The installer program:

  1. Installs the new product code.

  2. Creates the default profile.

    You can create additional profiles using any of these available methods:

 

Installing with a response file

  1. Copy the responsefile.nd.txt file from the WAS directory on the product disk to a place that you can easily identify on your system.

  2. Edit the file to customize the values for your installation.

  3. Save the file as myresponsefile.txt, for example.

  4. Start the installation. For example:

    install -options /tmp/WAS/myresponsefile.txt -silent
    

    install -options /MYDATA/myresponsefile.txt
    

  5. After the installation, examine the logs for success.

 

Example of the default file for i5/OS

Here is the format of the response file that is shipped on the disk:

# Enclose all values within a single pair of double quotes.
# 
# A common use of an options file is to run the wizard in silent mode. This lets
# the options file's author to specify wizard settings without having to run the
# wizard in graphical or console mode. To use this options file for silent mode
# execution, use the following command line arguments when running the wizard:
