   Silent installation supports the following additional response-file parameters for MySQL repository security:

   MYSQL_CA_CERTIFICATE_LOCATION=
   MYSQL_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE_LOCATION=
   MYSQL_PRIVATE_KEY_LOCATION=
   MYSQL_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD=
   MYSQL_SECURITY_PROTOCOL=
   MYSQL_SSL_MODE=

   Note: Setting the user type to non-sudo means that the installation process will deploy and configure MySQL without asking for root/administrator operating system privileges.

3. The following is the command to make a silent installation of the Installer:

   • If Java location is set:

     ./fbo_oggvdt_linux_services_shiphome/Disk1/runInstaller -silent -responseFile /scratch/vdt.rsp

   • If Java location is not set:

     ./oggvdt_linux_services_shiphome/Disk1/runInstaller -jreloc <java location> -silent -responseFile /scratch/vdt.rsp

   If the silent installation was successful, the console will display the following information.

   The installation of Oracle Veridata Services was successful.
   Please check '/scratch/oracle/app/oracle/product/oraInventory/logs/silentInstall2024-10-09_08-18-05PM.log' for more details.
   Successfully Setup Software.

4. To install and configure the built-in MySQL, run the install_configure_mysql.sh with the following sudo command:

   sudo <VERIDATA_HOME>/script/vdtca/install_configure_mysql.sh

   Note: When using non-sudo user, it is not required to run the install_configure_mysql script, the MYSQL deployment will happen internally as part of the vdtca script.

5. The following is the command to make a silent installation of the Configuration Assistant:

   • If Java location is set:

     ./<VERIDATA_HOME>/bin/vdtca.sh -silent -responseFile /scratch/vdtca.rsp

   • If Java location is not set:

     ./<VERIDATA_HOME>/bin/vdtca.sh -silent -jreloc <java location> -responseFile /scratch/vdtca.rsp

   If the silent installation was successful, then the console will display the following information: Successfully Setup Software.
