Performing a silent installation of Access Server (UNIX and Linux)

Procedure

  1. Log on to your UNIX or Linux® machine with the account you are using for the Access Server installation.
  2. Copy the installation file for your platform from the DVD or download it from the IBM® Web site.
  3. Make the installation program executable.
  4. Generate your response file in one of two ways:
    • Edit the following example response file for Access Server so that it is specific to your environment:
      # Thu Nov 16 14:55:00 EST 2017
      # Replay feature output
      # ---------------------
      # This file was built by the Replay feature of InstallAnywhere.
      # It contains variables that were set by Panels, Consoles or Custom Code.
      
      
      #Indicate whether the license agreement been accepted
      #-----------------------------
      LICENSE_ACCEPTED=TRUE
      
      #Choose Install Folder
      #---------------------
      USER_INSTALL_DIR=/opt/IBM/InfoSphereDataReplication/AccessServer
      
      #Choose Access Server Port
      #-------------------------
      as.port=10101
      
      #Choose to enable LDAP
      #---------------------
      as.enableldap=none
      
      #Specify user data folder
      #------------------------
      as.userdatalocation=/opt/IBM/InfoSphereDataReplication/AccessServer

      Where the as.enableldap available options are none, authonly, full, or embedded.

    • Record your own response file by running the following command: <installation_executable_name> -r <response_file>
      where:
      • <installation_executable_name> is the name of the Access Server installation file.
      • <response_file> is the name of the response file.

      For example, cdcaccess-<version>-<operating_system>-<architecture>-setup.bin -r ASResponseFile.txt

  5. Silently install Access Server by running the following command:

    <installation_executable_name> -i SILENT -f <response_file>

    For example, cdcaccess-<version>-setup.bin -i SILENT -f ASResponseFile.txt
