WebSphere Partner Gateway also provides a way to install the components from the command line. This feature requires an options file that provides values for all of the installation options. You can modify the provided sample ISS files to create a custom options file.
The sample files for the Database Loader are in the Database Loader directory on the CD and in the unarchived install image. The WebSphere Partner Gateway sample files are in the hub directory on the CD and in the unarchived install image.
Each option in the file appears on a separate line and is preceded by comments that describe the setting and present an example of the option. In the sample files, the option values are the default values presented in the GUI. Some settings, such as passwords and hostnames, require information about the local configuration.
To install the Database Loader or WebSphere Partner Gateway using the command line:
cd DBLoader
or
cd hub
setupWindows -options "<options file name>"
Where <options file name> identifies the file that contains the option values the installer will use.
With this command, the installer displays all of the windows that appear in a normal GUI installation, and all of the fields in the windows contain the values listed in the options file.
