Completing installation of the z/OS deployment tools in silent mode

In silent mode, you specify the installation properties in a text file and then complete the installation of the z/OS® deployment tools without command-line prompts.

Before you begin

Before you complete installation of the z/OS deployment tools in silent mode, install an agent.

Specify the installation properties as described in the example.toolkit.install.properties file. The installation properties file is stored in the conf/toolkit folder of the IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy agent computer. You can also use the installation properties file from an existing installation as an example properties file.

About this task

The z/OS deployment tools must be installed on every agent that deploys z/OS components. The z/OS deployment tools use secured tokens to communicate with the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server. You must create a token on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the directory where you copied the installation files.
  2. Run the install-toolkit-from-file.sh script. Supply the installation properties file as a command-line parameter. For more information about the installation properties, see Completing the installation of the z/OS deployment tools. For example, type ./install-toolkit-from-file.sh example.toolkit.install.properties at a command line.
  3. Configure security on the agent computer. To learn more, see Security requirements on z/OS computers

What to do next

Start the agent. To create and deploy z/OS components, see Deploying to the z/OS platform.
