Additional Flags for Installation Commands

You can optionally append any of the following flags to your installation command:

• -is:log logfile

  where:

  • logfile = The full path name and the name of the file to be generated (for example, /usr/tmp/gateway.log)

    Generates an additional log file. The logging information in the file is limited to initialization errors, such as JVM. Use this flag for debugging or for troubleshooting when you cannot invoke the installation process.

    NOTE:  The default log file that records status errors during installation is created in the $SIEBEL_ROOT directory.

• -is:javaconsole -console

  Generates a script-type (non-GUI) installation. This method is most useful when installing over a WAN. For more information, see Installing and Configuring in Console Mode.

• -is:tempdir temp_directory_location

  Directs the installer to the location to install the temporary files. If the default directory is not suitable or does not have the required free space, you can designate another location. For more information, see Managing Temporary Disk Space Required by Installers.
