Installation of Additional OMS Fails If Primary OMS Was Installed in Silent Mode

If you installed the primary OMS in silent mode, adding another OMS using the graphical interface (using a deployment procedure) will fail.

The workaround is to install an additional OMS, on a secondary host, in silent mode and add the parameter COLLECTOR_IGNORE_CONFIGURATION=true in silent install RSP (response) file.
