You can install the GA level IBM Data Server Driver Package by running the setup command from the command line. For fix pack level images run the downloaded exe file from the command line.

The command-line options for installing the IBM Data Server Driver Package are as follows. For more information about the Windows Installer options, see http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/.

/n [copy_name]: Specifies the copy name that you want the installation to use. If the copy exists, a maintenance installation is performed on that copy. Otherwise, a new installation is performed by using the specified copy name. Specifying this option overrides the installation path in the response file.

/p [install_directory]: Changes the installation path of the product. Specifying this option overrides the installation path in the response file.
/i language: Specifies the two-letter language code of the language in which to perform the installation.
