Configuration Manager can be run from a command line. This
section covers the syntax for the command-line version of Configuration
Manager.
There are several reasons why you choose to run the Configuration
Manager from the commend line as opposed to using the graphical user
interface:
- You want to automate the configuration of the software.
- Your site wants the command line version run for security reasons.
- You want to create a script to set your system up and then only
allow a user to execute the script.
- You must run the Configuration Manager from the command-line because
your system is HPUX.
You begin by generating the configuration XML
files that define the application server, the profile type and the
XML file path. You then edit the files to enter values for your environment.
Finally you deploy
IBM® Enterprise
Records by
running the tasks from the command prompt.
Important: The
configuration XML files that you create with either the GUI or command-line
version of the Configuration Manager tool can be used with the other
version. For example, you can create the files with the command-line
version and then use the GUI version to open the profile, edit the
values, and run the configuration tasks.
