Silent installation

Silent mode enables the installation without any user interaction. Installation parameters are specified as a properties file.

To complete a silent installation on Linux or UNIX systems:

1. In the same location where you copied the installer files, create an installer.properties file.
2. In a text editor, set the installer.properties values. The following text shows an example of an installer.properties file:

   ===============================================
   # Thu Jan 29 11:35:37 GMT 2015
   # 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
   
   #Server Mode
   #-----------
   SERVERMODE_SELECT_OPTION=\"1\"
   
   #Choose Install Folder
   #---------------------
   USER_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/IBM/SPSS/ModelerServer/17.0
   
   #Install
   ===============================================

3. The value for SERVERMODE_SELECT_OPTION depends on the type of installation you have. You can choose from the following values:
   • 0 - Non-Production Mode. If you purchased a separate non-production installation, enter this option. This installation cannot be employed for production use.
   • 1 - Production Mode. A production installation is a standard installation of SPSS® Modeler Server. It is appropriate for production use.
4. Ensure that the value for USER_INSTALL_DIR matches your installation directory location. The directory path cannot contain spaces.
5. Save the file.
6. Run the installer by using the following command:

   ./<installer_name> -i silent -f installer.properties

   Where <installer_name> is the installer .bin file.
