Silent Mode Installations

This section describes how to install SSMs using silent mode installation.

 

Silent Mode Overview

In silent mode, the SSM installer reads inputs from an XML file rather than prompt you to enter these values one at a time. Silent-mode installs displays no GUI windows and completes without user intervention.

To perform a silent-mode install, you first set up the XML template file and then run the installer with an option that tells it to read that file.

 

XML File

When an SSM is installed in regular (non-silent) mode, a silent-mode XML file is created. This file can be modified and used for subsequent silent mode installs. The created file is BEA_HOME/ales30-ssm/<ssmtype>/adm/silent_install_ssm.xml. Use the information in Table 10-2 to modify the file for your purposes.
