Performing silent installations of Server components
An unattended (silent) install requires that you first run an installation in the installer wizard (Windows or Linux) to capture the selected components and options, and then use the captured response file on targets on the same platform to 'playback' the responses into the installer without any user interaction.
Silent installations or updates for Corticon Server Components on Windows:
1. Run the Corticon Server for Windows installer with your preferred locations and options to capture a response file, using the syntax installer.exe -rfile where installer is the preferred Server installer, and file is the response file you will reuse. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_5.6.x_SERVER_WIN_64.exe -r C:\CorticonServer_56x_WIN.responses
2. On other target Windows machines, access the Server 5.6.x installer executable and the response file.
3. Run the installer using the syntax installer.exe -i silent -f file where installer is the Server installer, and file is your response file. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_5.6.x_SERVER_WIN_64.exe -i silent -f C:\CorticonServer_56x_WIN.responses.
Silent installations or updates for Corticon Server Components on Linux:
1. Run the Corticon Server for Linux installer with your preferred locations and options to capture a response file, using the syntax installer.bin -rfile where installer is the preferred Server installer, and file is the response file you will reuse. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_5.6.x_SERVER_LNX_64.bin -r /usr/corticon/CorticonServer_56x_LNX.responses
2. On other target Linux machines, access the Server 5.6.x installer binary and the response file.
3. Run the installer using the syntax installer.bin -i silent -f file where installer is the Server installer, and file is your response file. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_5.6.x_SERVER_LNX_64.bin -i silent -f /usr/corticon/CorticonServer_56x_LNX.responses.
