2. Be sure you have the necessary unattended installation script ( manta-flow-agent-install-unattended.java) and Java version 11 or higher. The script is a Java program that should be executed by an admin user. See the script for more information and installation options.

3. Run this script with the following arguments.

# <parameter> - one parameter
# (<optional parameter>) - optional parameter

Mandatory arguments:
    #1 Path to the Manta Flow Agent installer
    #2 Path to the configuration zip file generated in Manta Admin GUI
Optional argument

Together with the silent Agent installation script, silent Agent uninstallation and upgrade scripts are also distributed.
