When you use record mode, OUI records the installation session to a response file. You specify the name of the response file on the command line. The recorded response file is generated immediately after the Summary page; you do not need to actually install your Oracle product to create the response file. That is, you can start the installation in Record mode and proceed through the installation options until you get to the Summary page. On the Summary Page, click Exit to stop the installation from proceeding with the installation. However, all the options you selected are saved in the resulting response file.
1. At the command prompt, use the cd command to change to the directory that contains the OUI executable file (runInstaller.sh) for your installation.Replace the <response_file_name> with the complete path for the new response file. For example:The location where products are to be installed. You must enter a value for ORACLE_HOME for a complete silent installation.The name of the current Oracle home. You must enter a value for ORACLE_HOME_NAME for a complete silent installation.You can set the installation type variable to determine the installation type of the currently selected top level component. Install_type can be selected from below table:
If artcics component is not selected and artbatch component is selected, the value can be "Micro-Focus-Cobol", "COBOL-IT", or "No-COBOL".If artcics component is selected, the value can be "Micro-Focus-Cobol" or "COBOL-IT".It is required if COBOL_COMPILER_TYPE is "COBOL-IT".
Note: If you attempt to perform a silent installation on a UNIX computer where no Oracle products have been installed, you will receive an error message. Before you can perform a silent installation in this situation, you must first run the oraInstRoot.sh script located in the /oraInventory directory. You must run this script with root privileges. This enables OUI to set up the Central Inventory on a clean host.
• To install Oracle Tuxedo Application Runtimes in complete silent mode, you must specify <optional_parameters> to -silent.
• You must specify the complete responseFile path. If you do not, OUI assumes the location is relative to the oraparam.ini file associated with the launched OUI.Optional parameters you can use with the -responseFile flag are:
• -nowelcome - Use the -nowelcome flag with the -responseFile flag to suppress the Welcome dialog that appears during installation.
• -silent - Use the -silent flag with the -responseFile flag to run OUI in complete silent mode. Note that the Welcome dialog is suppressed automatically.
• -waitforcompletion - Use the -waitforcompletion flag with -silent flag to wait for completion instead of spawning the java engine and exiting.
• In a file named silentInstall<timestamp>.log for hosts without an Oracle inventory. This file is generated in the /tmp directory on UNIX platforms.
Note: Using the -nowelcome option with the -silent option is unnecessary since the Welcome screen does not appear when you use the -silent option.This sample UNIX response file in Listing 3‑1 applies to a silent installation of Oracle Tuxedo Application Runtimes 12c Release 2 (12.1.3).Listing 3‑1 UNIX response File#Use this page to select or de-select dependencies.
