Installing the Dispatcher in silent mode

You can install the Dispatcher in silent mode.

About this task

You can install the Dispatcher in silent mode by using the default settings. You also can override the default settings with the commands described in Table 1.

If you use the default settings, then the Dispatcher is installed in the following location, depending on your operating system:
  • On Windows, in %SYSTEM_DRIVE_ROOT%\Program Files\IBM\TDI\V7.1
  • On UNIX and Linux®, in /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1
You can override the default settings with the -D parameter. The -D must be immediately followed by an option-value pair. There is no space after the -D option.
Note: If the value contains spaces, then you must use quotation marks around the value.

If you install the Dispatcher by using silent mode, then the uninstaller runs in silent mode regardless of whether you use the -i silent option.
