This topic describes how to use the Update Installer for WebSphere Software to install the interim fix, interim feature, or test fix using the silent install option.
The following is a sample of a response file used to install an interim fix, interim feature, or test fix using the silent installer.
################################################################################ # # This is the silent install response file for installing maintenance packages # using the update installer. # # A common use of an options file is to run the wizard in silent mode. This lets # the options file author specify wizard settings without having to run the # wizard in graphical or console mode. To use this options file for silent mode # execution, *uncomment* and modify the parameters defined within. # # Use the following command line when running the wizard from the update # installer directory: # # update -options responsefiles/install.txt -silent # # Please enclose all values within a single pair of double quotes. # ################################################################################ ################################################################################ # # This section describes how to apply a maintenance package using the full filename # specifications to be installed. # There are three ways you can specify installing a maintenance package. They are # the following: # (Use the examples below and edit where appropriate.) # # 1. Specify a single maintenance package full filename to be installed. # # For example: # -W maintenance.package="C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\UpdateInstaller\maintenance\PQ20029.pak" # # 2. Specify a multiple maintenance package full filename to be installed. # - Use a semicolon to separate the full filename specifications. # - Update Installer will install the latest applicable maintenance in the order listed. # # For example: # -W maintenance.package="C:\maintenance\PQ20029.pak;C:\maintenance\PK31008.pak;D:\6.1.0-WS-WAS-WinX32-FP0000001.pak" # # 3. Specify a full folder name that contains the maintenance packages. # Update Installer will install the latest applicable maintenance in the order listed in the folder. # # For example: # -W maintenance.package="D:\UpdateInstaller\maintenance" # # Notes: If no package is specified, maintenance packages from the default folder (such as, UpdateInstaller_HOME/maintenance ) # will be installed. # -W maintenance.package="D:\UpdateInstaller\maintenance\6.1.0.1-WS-WAS-IFPK21009.pak" ################################################################################ # # Prerequisite Checking # # The update installer checks the system for prerequisites by default. # # Uncomment the following option to notify the installer to continue with # the update and log the warnings even though prerequisite checking # failed. # #-OPT disableNonBlockingPrereqChecking="true" ################################################################################ # # Used to input the product install location that will be updated. # # ie. -W product.location="C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer" # # Note: The product install location should always been specified, and it should # always be the full path. # -W product.location="D:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer" ################################################################################ # # Do not edit these values. # # -W update.type="install"
