Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 Installation Guide for UNIX

ProcedureTo Generate a State File ID Using the Installer

This procedure generates a state file ID by running the installer on the platform on which you want to perform silent installation.

Note –

The following command works only if you are generating an ID for the same platform on which you are running the command.

Steps

  1. If you are not logged in as root, become superuser.

  2. Navigate to the directory where the installer is located:


    cd installer-directory

  3. Run the installer with the -id option.


    ./installer -id

    The command generates an encrypted identifier.

  4. Copy the identifier and paste the value into the state file, as the value for the STATE_BEGIN and STATE_DONE parameters.

    The following is an example of the state file identifier within a state file:


    [STATE_BEGIN Sun Java(tm) Enterprise System \
f31c7e86a64605bc5b9b629931a30b275a0eb447]
.
.
.
[STATE_DONE Sun Java(tm) Enterprise System \
f31c7e86a64605bc5b9b629931a30b275a0eb447]
