Generating Installation and Configuration Response Files

This topic is part of Installing and Configuring in Unattended Mode.

Before you perform unattended installation for a product, you generate an installation response file. For unattended configuration, you also need to generate a configuration response file.

• To generate an installation response file, run the installer in record mode. You will use the siebel.ini file that is output from this task to perform the unattended installation. By default, the siebel.ini file output from using record mode disables launching the Configuration Wizard.
• To generate a configuration response file, you run the Configuration Wizard in offline mode. You will use the XML file that is output from this task to perform unattended configuration (running the Configuration Wizard in execute mode).

If you want unattended installation to launch unattended configuration automatically, you must make further edits to the siebel.ini file before installing.
