Usage notes

This command installs Net Search Extender contained in the package file passed as a parameter. If you do not specify any additional parameters, the installation program checks the system for eligible copies of DB2 database systems where Net Search Extender can be installed. All DB2 database installation paths are listed but only a viable subset is selectable. You are asked by the system to select an installation path.

If you select to install silently, there is no user interaction. The outcome of the installation process is passed as a return code to the calling program which might be a command shell or a shell script. It is up to you to handle the return code correctly. A log file that documents the installation is written to the /tmp directory.

If you select to force install, there is no user interaction and there are no additional checks. The outcome of the installation process is passed as a return code to the calling program which might be a command shell or a shell script. It is up to you to handle the return code correctly. A log file that documents the installation is written to the /tmp directory.

Both the parameters -s and -f require that a path is passed. No default path exists for these parameters.

If the -v parameter is passed, only the version of the program is displayed and the program exits without any further action.
