When you install product components using the Configure Now option, the installer presents pages that allow you to specify how some common settings are to be handled during install-time configuration:
In a state file created for silent install, the variables can specify sensitive data, such as administrator passwords. Make sure to protect the file as appropriate for your deployment.
For a Configure Now installation, the Password Choice page allows you to specify a single administrator account and password for all the product components that use the administrator settings.
Table 3–1 Password Choice
Common server settings are used to provide default values for the product components that use the settings.
On the configuration pages of the installer, the notation “Shared default value” indicates which setting are default values from the Common Server Settings page. You can accept the default value or you can override it by entering a value that is specific to the product component you are configuring.
