Running OEE12Setup.exe from the Command Line

This section describes the command line arguments for OEE12Setup.exe that can be used to set these default parameters to install the local Oracle database:

• Oracle Base Directory

• System password

• Use the Microsoft Windows built-in user account to install

Depending on which switch or combination of switches are used, running OEE12Setup.exe from the command line will prompt for additional user input by displaying the OEE12Setup.exe GUI. The following command line scenarios will cause the OEE12Setup.exe to display the GUI:

• The Windows built-in account is specified and the Oracle Base Directory is specified but is invalid or empty. The GUI prompts for a valid install directory.

• The Windows built-in account is not specified and the Oracle Base Directory is not specified, invalid, or empty. The GUI prompts for the Oracle Home User and/or the Oracle Base Directory as necessary.

There are two scenarios in which the install is silent (that is, the OEE12Setup.exe GUI is not displayed):

1. The only switch specified is to use the Windows built-in account. In this case the default installation directory is assumed, which is c:\Oracle.

2. The switch to use the Windows built-in account is used in combination with the switch and valid argument that specifies a valid Oracle Base Directory.
