Installing in silent mode

Install FTM for Immediate Payments unattended using a response file.

In silent mode, the installation settings are specified in the response file and read by IBM® Installation Manager during installation.

Sample response files for silent installation and uninstallation are available in the FTM_IP_MP_V3.2.13.zip file.

In order to obtain these samples, extract the archive. For example, by using the jar command provided by the Java™ SDK. The extracted directory contains the following files:

silent/ftmIP_install.rsp – the sample response file for the silent installation of FTM for Immediate Payments
silent/ftmIP_uninstall.rsp – the sample response file for the silent uninstallation of FTM for Immediate Payments

To install FTM for Immediate Payments in silent mode:

Change to the directory to which you extracted the installation package.
Edit the response file:
- To set the installation repository, locate the following tag and replace your_ftm_IP_repository.config_directory with the directory that contains the repository.config file:
```
<repository location='your_ftm_IP_repository.config_directory'/>
```
- If your FTM installation directory is to be different from /opt/IBM/ftm, locate the following tags and replace /opt/IBM/ftm with your installation directory:
```
<profile id='IBM Financial Transaction Manager'
  installLocation='/opt/IBM/ftm'>

<data key='eclipseLocation' value='/opt/IBM/ftm'/>
```
- If the shared resources directory of the IBM Installation Manager is not /opt/IBM/IBMIMShared, locate the following tag and replace /opt/IBM/IBMIMShared with the correct directory:
```
<preference name='com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.eclipseCache'
  value='/opt/IBM/IBMIMShared'/>
```
Save the response file.
Perform the installation, for example, run
```
<IMinstdir>/eclipse/tools/imcl -input ftmIP_install.rsp -acceptLicense -log log/ftmIP_install.log
```
where <IMinstdir> represents the directory in which IBM Installation Manager is installed (the default is /opt/IBM/InstallationManager).
