Installing in Console Mode

The following procedures describe installation of the Siebel application in console mode.

NOTE:  Because there is no Browse button in console mode, you should note the paths for both your base CD and your language CD installation executables, so that you can enter this information when prompted (for example, /cdrom/unix_server_UNIX_OS_ses_lang/ses/language/setupUNIX_OS).

To install in console mode

  1. Insert the UNIX_OS Server Programs; for example, for SES insert the Siebel Enterprise Server, Base CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of the server.

    2. where:

    UNIX_OS = your UNIX operating system, such as Solaris, HP-UX, or AIX.

    NOTE:  The volume label for the CD is seaUNIX_OS | base or language; it may not be required, depending on how you access the CD-ROM.

  2. Navigate to the main installer directory. For example, /cdrom/unix_server_UNIX_OS_ses_base/ses. (For the path for specific servers, refer to the later chapters in this guide that describe installation through the GUI.)
  3. Execute the following command:

    4. ./setupUNIX_OS -is:javaconsole -console -args SS_SETUP_INI = main installer siebel.ini path

    where:

    UNIX_OS is your UNIX operating system, such as Solaris, HP-UX, or AIX.

    main installer siebel.ini path is the full path to the main installer siebel.ini file that you edited in Editing the siebel.ini Files for Console-Mode Installation.

    NOTE:  You can append additional flags to your command. For more information, see Additional Flags for Installation Commands.

    The console mode installation script appears. Refer to the installation chapters later in this guide for reference regarding the definition of specific prompts.

  4. You can launch the configuration in console mode or GUI mode. To launch it in console mode, see Configuring in Console Mode.
