Silent-mode Requirements
Before running silent-mode, verify your system meets all requirements.
Make sure you have done the following:
- Identify or Create Information Required for the Installation
- Verify Installation Prerequisites
- Download the STA Installer —the Response File Build Utility is part of the installation package.
Additional requirements include:
- A version of Java running on the server.
- You can use silent mode from telnet clients such as PuTTY, which do not use the X11
protocol. The
xorg-x11-utils
RPM package must be installed on the STA server, however. - Silent mode also requires a central inventory pointer file specifying the location of the Oracle central inventory directory and the Oracle group. You must create the file manually if it does not exist already.
