4.2.2.2 Optional Parameters When Specifying a Response File

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.
• In the inventory logs directory for hosts that already had an inventory.

Note:

Using the -nowelcome option with the -silent option is unnecessary since the Welcome screen does not appear when you use the -silent option.
