SSP Configuration Manager (SSPcm) Silent Install/Upgrade Example

Edit online

In this scenario, assume that the user wants to build an appropriate installer.properties file to silently install the SSP Configuration Manager on Linux in the directory /data/SSPcm, and that the configuration should be encrypted using the passphrase “mypassphrase”.

Additionally, the user wants to build the installer.properties file on a Windows platform to be used to silently install/upgrade SSPcm on Linux.

Building installer.properties for SSP Configuration Manager

In a CMD prompt, navigate to the directory where the SSP Configuration Manager installer is located (e.g. c:\download\SSPcm).

Enter:

Windows_X64\SSPcm.V6010.Win_X64.exe -r C:\download\SSPcm

The user completes a fresh install or upgrade and the responses are recorded in an output file in the named directory.

Once the installation is complete, installer.properties will be built in c:\download\SSPcm. For example:


      # Tue Sep 27 12:18:53 CDT

      # Replay feature output
      # ---------------------
      # This file was built by the Replay feature

      PASSPHRASE1=

      #-----------------------
      JETTY_PORT=8443
      #Install
      #------- 
    
      :

Edit installer.properties file

Add as the first line:

INSTALLER_UI=silent

Change USER_INSTALL_DIR

USER_INSTALL_DIR=/data/SSPcm

For a Windows installation (or upgrade) use double backslashes (\\).

Add the desired passphrase (both PASSPHRASE and PASSPHRASE1 must match)

Note:

All the data after the #Install should be deleted.

Edited installer.properties file example:


      INSTALLER_UI=silent
      # Tue Sep 27 12:18:53 CDT
