Installing IBM Content Search Services Client files silently

You can install IBM® Content Search Services Client files silently by editing a silent input file and running the installation program from a command line. You must install IBM Content Search Services Client files on all application server computers where Content Engine server is installed.

Be sure that you have the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that you completed during your planning activities.

To install IBM Content Search Services Client files:

  1. Open your completed Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.
    Tip: In the worksheet file, verify that the Data > Filter > AutoFilter command is enabled. To view only IBM Content Search Services values, filter by CSS Installer in the Installation or Configuration Program column.
  2. On the computer where Content Engine is to be deployed, log on as ce_install_user.
  3. Locate the IBM Content Search Services Client installation software. The Client software must be the same version as your IBM Content Search Services Server software. You must install IBM Content Search Services and Content Engine software on the same operating system. For example, if Content Engine runs on Windows®, locate the IBM Content Search Services Client installation software that runs on Windows.
  4. Locate the cseclient_silent_install.txt file in the directory that contains the IBM Content Search Services Client installation software and edit the file to reflect the appropriate responses for your installation by using the values from your worksheet. Specify the location where you want to install the IBM Content Search Services Client files.

    The default installation paths are as follows:

    Option Description
    AIX®, Linux®, UNIX®, Solaris /opt/IBM/FileNet/ContentEngine/CSEClient
    Windows C:\Program Files\IBM\FileNet\ContentEngine\CSEClient
  5. Start the IBM Content Search Services Client installation program.
