Installing IBM Daeja ViewONE silently

You can install IBM Daeja ViewONE on the server by running a silent installation. When you run a silent installation, the installation program does not display any installation windows or messages. Instead, any messages and errors are written to the installation log file.

About this task

A silent installation uses a response file that contains the installation parameters that you specify. The software package includes a sample response file called DAEJA_VIEWONE_silent_install.txt. You must modify this file to specify your entitlements. The files contain comments that describe the modifications that you can make.

Procedure

To install IBM Daeja ViewONE silently:

  1. Navigate to temporary directory in which you extracted the IBM Daeja ViewONE software package.
  2. Edit the DAEJA_VIEWONE_silent_install.txt response file:
    1. Under Accept the License Agreement, set the value to TRUE:
      LICENSE_ACCEPTED=TRUE
    2. If you are installing to a development or test environment, set PRODUCTION to 0 under Select the Installation environment:
      PRODUCTION=0
    3. Under Select Entitlements, specify the modules that you want to install.
      For example, to install IBM Daeja ViewONE Virtual with the ViewONE Office Module, set the value as follows:
      CHOSEN_INSTALL_FEATURE_LIST=VirtualModuleForMicrosoftOffice
    4. Optional:
  3. Save your changes to the response file.
  4. At a command line, change to the directory that contains the installation program and run the following command:
    Operating system Command
    AIX®
    ./DAEJA_VIEWONE_26.0.0_UNIX_ML.bin -i silent -f DAEJA_VIEWONE_silent_install.txt
    Linux®
    ./DAEJA_VIEWONE_26.0.0_UNIX_ML.bin -i silent -f DAEJA_VIEWONE_silent_install.txt
    Windows
    DAEJA_VIEWONE_26.0.0_WIN_ML.exe -i silent -f DAEJA_VIEWONE_silent_install.txt

    response_file is the fully qualified path of the edited response file.

  5. When the installation completes, check for errors in the IBM Daeja ViewONE installation log.

    The installation log file, DaejaViewONE_install_26.0.0.txt (x represents the specific version that you are using), is in the root installation directory. For example, the default location for the log file on a Windows server is C:\Program Files\IBM\Daeja ViewONE_Virtual.
