Specify parameters at the command line to customize and configure your product installation.
Note: You must specify the fully-qualified response file name. Specifying the relative path causes the installation to fail with no indication that an error occurred.
Parameters
You can pass the following parameters during a command-line or options file installation of the product:
- -silent
- Suppresses the graphical user interface (GUI). Specify the -options parameter to indicate that the installer completes the installation according to a customized options file. If you do not specify the -options parameter, the default values are used instead.
Example usage
./install.sh|bat -silent -options options_file.txt
- -options path_name/file_name
- Specifies an options file that the installer uses to complete a silent installation. Properties on the command line take precedence.
Example usage
./install.sh|bat -options c:/path_name/options_file.txt

- -is:log path_name/file_name
