Configuring in silent mode with dominstall

Edit online

How to configure Data Protection for HCL Domino in silent mode with dominstall is described. Configuring the Domino Server operating in the Data Protection for HCL Domino and Domino Server single or multiple partition environment in silent mode, configures the system without user interaction.

About this task

The dominstall program provides an option filename that records all user input to a file during a manual dominstall configuration. Use this file to run dominstall configurations on other partitions without user interaction.

To create a dominstall configuration file, which is needed to run dominstall configuration in silent mode on other partitions, run the following command: ./dominstall filename

When the manual dominstall configuration is completed, copy the dominstall configuration file to the system that you want to configure in silent mode. When the dominstall program is started with the name of an existing dominstall configuration file, the contents of that file are used to run the silentdominstall configuration.

When a change occurs to the Domino environment for which a dominstall configuration file was created, the silent dominstall configuration cannot function. A manual dominstall configuration must be run for that environment to create a dominstall configuration file.

The dominstall configuration file filename contains the user input that is recorded during a manual dominstall configuration. For example:
N 
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin
N
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux
N
/opt/ibm/lotus/notesdata
y
n
y
db2inst1

The previous filename example was created from the manual dominstall configuration that is shown here.

This procedure reflects a Data Protection for HCL Domino installation on a Linux 86 operating system. Directory structures and file names differ in UNIX, and Linux systems.

Procedure

  1. Log in with the user ID setup to run the Domino server.
  2. Use the su root command to switch to the root user ID.
  3. Change to the Data Protection for HCL Domino installation directory:# cd /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin
    • If the dominstall configuration file contains input from a manual dominstall configuration, enter this command to run a silent dominstall configuration:./dominstall filename
    • If the dominstall configuration file does not exist and does not contain input data, enter the following command to create a file and run a manual dominstall configuration:./dominstall filename Go to Step 5 in Configuring manually with dominstall and enter a response to all of the dominstall prompts.
    1. When all the dominstall inputs are entered, copy the dominstall configuration file filename to the system that you want to run the configuration in silent mode.
    2. Repeat the silent configuration with the configuration files to configure more partitions.
