A silent (non-interactive) installation does not display a user interface or ask the user any questions. Instead, the system uses information from the properties files. To perform a guided installation, see Section 3.3, Using the Installation Wizard. To prepare for the installation, review the prerequisites and system requirements listed in Section 2.1, Installation Checklist. Also, see the latest Release Notes for pertinent installation information.
For your convenience, you can specify a password that the installation process applies to the single sign-on passwords that you must configure for Identity Manager. For more information, see Section 4.1, Considerations for Configuring the Components.
To perform a silent installation:
Log in as root or an administrator to the computer where you want to install the components.
After you have mounted the .iso file, navigate to the directory containing the installation files, located by default in the <extracted_iso_path>/install/propfiles/install.properties directory.
Edit the install.properties file for the silent installation, located by default in the following directories:
Linux: install/propfiles
Windows: install\propfiles
Navigate to the directory containing the installation files, located by default in the install directory.
Edit the install.properties file for the silent installation, located by default in the following directories:
Linux: install/propfiles
Windows: install\propfiles
(Optional) Instruct the installation process to apply the same password for all integrated installation configuration parameters. For more information, see Section 3.2, Using the Same Password for all Integrated Installation Configuration Parameters.
To run the silent installation, issue one of the following commands:
Linux: install.bin -i silent -f <extracted_iso_path>/install/propfiles/install.properties
Windows: install.exe -i silent -f <extracted_iso_path>/install/propfiles/install.properties
(Conditional) To continue the configuration, enter the following values in the install.properties file:
Specify CONTINUE_CONFIGURE=true.
Specify the path of the configuration file in CONFIGURE_PROPERTY_FILE property. For example, if you are configuring a new tree, specify configure_new_tree.properties. Specify configure_existing_tree.properties for an existing tree. For more information, see Section 4.0, Configuring the Identity Manager Components.
(Conditional) To configure the components later, issue one of the following commands:
Linux: configure.bin -i silent -f <extracted_iso_path>/install/propfiles/configure_<new/existing>_tree.properties
Windows: configure.exe -i silent -f <extracted_iso_path>/install/propfiles/configure_<new/existing>_tree.properties
