A.2 Installer Configuration File

This section describes the configuration file you can use during an Oracle VM Manager installation to perform a silent installation. You should use spaces and not tabs when formatting this configuration file. This is because the configuration file is written in YAML and tabs are treated differently across editors. The number of spaces that you use to perform an indent is not important, only that you are consistent in your indentation. To use the configuration file, enter:

# ./runInstaller.sh --config=/path/myconfig.yml --installtype=Custom --assumeyes
