Command-Line Options for the Graphical Installer

--current-zone-only
Install only in the current zone. When you run the installer in the global zone, this option makes the installed product available only in that zone.
--help
Display information on the options.
--ignore-arch
Disable system architecture checking (Oracle Solaris based systems only)
--javahome directory
Use the JDK in directory when running the installer. This option is needed when the installer cannot locate a JDK in a standard location on your system, and you need to point it to one.
--libraries-only
Perform runtime libraries only installation.
--locale locale
Override the default locale for the installer with the specified locale. Valid locales are en (English), ja (Japanese), and zh (Simplified Chinese).
--nfs-server
Use NFS server installation mode, in which the installer does not check the server for the required Oracle Solaris patches or create symbolic links in the /usr/bin directory.
--output output_file
Write all installer output to the specified file.
--record state_file.xml
Record an installer session in the graphical installer so that you can use repeat the installation on another system with the command-line installer. This option is especially useful when you want to install a subset of the product components on multiple systems.
--tempdir directory
By default, the installer extracts temporary data into the /tmp directory. If there is not sufficient space in the /tmp directory on your system, you can specify another directory for the installer to use.
--verbose
Write verbose output to the console.

--current-zone-only
Install only in the current zone. When you run the installer in the global zone, this option makes the installed product visible only in that zone.
--extract-installation-data directory
Extract installation data, do not perform installation.
--generate-desktop-distr

--ignore-arch
Disable system architecture checking (Oracle Solaris based systems only)
--install-components component_name,component_name,...

--installation-location directory
Install Oracle Solaris Studio software in the specified directory instead of in the default installation directory /opt.
