Silent Mode Installation Options
Note:
Starting with Oracle Hardware Management Pack 2.4.9.0, the only installation option available is a manual installation. For information on how to manually install Oracle Hardware Management Pack, see Installing the Software Manually.Silent mode is a non-interactive installation method. You
navigate to the extract-directory and execute the install.bin
at the command line. You can execute silent mode in
one of two ways:
-
A silent installation can be directed by supplying a properties file. The properties file contains parameters and properties that define the installation choices for the Installer.
A properties file must first be created by running a GUI or console mode installation using the -r option as shown in the following example:
#
./install.bin -i GUI -r /path/filename.propertieswhere path must be an absolute path to the directory where your properties file will be created, and filename is the name of your properties file (suggested name:
installer.properties
).Once the properties file is created, you can use the file to do an identical silent installation using the following command:
#
./install.bin -i silent -f /path/filename.propertieswhere path can be either an absolute path or a path relative to the location of the properties file.
Note:
You don't need to use the -f option if you created a file named
installer.properties
in the same directory asinstall.bin
. The installer will, by default, look for a file namedinstaller.properties
in that directory. -
If no properties file is supplied, a default installation of the Management Pack components is performed with no post-installation configuration steps. When using the default silent install, all Management Pack components are installed, except IPMItool.
Note:
On a server without SNMP configured, Management Agents is not installed. On a server with a previous version of Management Pack installed, the software is upgraded. The Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is not configured or enabled by default.
