C Installing and Configuring Oracle Database Using Response Files

Learn how to install and configure Oracle products using response files.

• How Response Files Work
  Response files can assist you with installing an Oracle product multiple times on multiple computers.
• Preparing a Response File
  Learn about the methods that you can use to prepare a response file for use during silent-mode or response file-mode installations.
• Running Oracle Universal Installer Using the Response File
  At this stage, you are ready to run Oracle Universal Installer at the command line, specifying the response file you created, to perform the installation.
• Running Net Configuration Assistant Using a Response File
  When you run Net Configuration Assistant with a response file, you run it in a silent mode.
• Running Oracle Database Configuration Assistant Using a Response File
  You can run Oracle Database Configuration Assistant in a silent or a response file mode to configure and start an Oracle database on your system.
• Postinstallation Configuration Using Response File Created During Installation
  To run a response file configuration after installing Oracle software:
• Postinstallation Configuration Using the ConfigToolAllCommands Script
  You can create and run a response file configuration after installing Oracle software. The configToolAllCommands script requires users to create a second response file, of a different format than the one used for installing the product.
• Using the Installation Response File for Postinstallation Configuration
  Starting with Oracle Database 12c release 2 (12.2), you can use the response file created during installation to also complete postinstallation configuration.
