Response File Component

You create a Response File component when you have created a response file to use with a package. Some Solaris packages contain a request script that asks you questions prior to installation. If you want to use the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System to install a package that has a request script, you must create a response file that contains the responses to the questions asked by the request script. Use the pkgask(1M) command to create the response file that you will reference in the Response File Component. For more information about response files, see Avoiding User Interaction When Adding Packages (pkgadd) in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

The Response File: Create Response File Component creates a component of the type com.sun.solaris#ResponseFile. This component references the response file that you created for use with a package.
